My new restaurant opened tonight after 2 years in the construction phase, 4 mos. of finishing building out, a lot of stress and beer! While we are still getting our feet under us and dealing with growing pains (after 15 years of being in the same old spot & 7 under my helm). I couldn't be anymore happy with the way it went...now if the VA ABC would just get me damn license to me..... if you are interested....KAPOWwww.821caferva.com (http://www.821caferva.com)

Or the DMF Bacon Breakfast Buffet of Bacon? (It's in there twice cuz it's
that good!)
Just kidding... Congratulations! [thumbsup] Next time I'm on your side of the country, I'll stop in. [bacon]
Congrats! And I love all the vegan options, if I'm ever in the area I'd definitely stop in. [thumbsup]
I'm going to try and stop by as I make my way to DC in early June. Mind if my pup comes in with me? ;) You could make her a special Darmah (hot) dog. [thumbsup]
way cool! ... love your menu! best of luck to you
thanks guys
Congratulations!
My fiancee and I have done a little research into possibly opening a French restaurant, so I've got a little understanding of how much work this took you. It's an awesome accomplishment, and I hope it takes off for you.
Congratulations! The menu looks like a solid selection of comfort food with some upscaling - I guess I am saying it looks very "'tizing" ;) Unfortunately, I am not within driving distance, but I will be sure to stop in if I ever am.
maybe I'll have to make sure to make a deliberate detour to stop in on my way down to Charlotte in October if I can' get there any sooner!
How far (in hours) is Richmond from the DC area?
Its about 2-3 hours depending on traffic.

The original was some good eats. I'll have to check out the new one too
Congrats Brix!
glad to report that I am and getting my ass kicked on the regular! week one has interesting, to say the least, but with every passing day we get a lil bit more of our groove back. On a side note, my family is out of town til monday...I feel like this is the 1st time I have been 100% alone in a bit. Sounds like a perfect time for some beers, plugging in the amp, maybe sleeping til 9 am and a good ole fashioned monster romp!
once again with the free press
