While I like RC’s tenders, it’s not my favorite place. Do you want tenders, or tenders on a bun? That’s it. And I don’t really like their sauce. Their sweet tea almost always delivers though.
My favorite chicken place is in Richmond. Lee’s on W. Broad near VCU.
Ryan Dunn in on it too
The production quality difference between IMac’s and Dunn’s videos is pretty funny.
I think his buddy Vintage Vizuals filmed it.
could be wrong though
Alright where should the Dragon eat lunch tomorrow and more importantly who will pay for it?
Guajiros, Al Carbon, Pearl Island.
edit: tell them you know Ryan Dunn
The Virginia mens basketball lockerroom and JayWilly pays
Will defer on lunch. As always, I’ll shill cville coffee for a coffee and a sandwich. Get the Vietnamese coffee
Raising canes is so overrated
Second guanirllos. Also love Thyme and co., DOMA, oyster salad at Hamilton’s, and Kuma
Never had it, but man, $7.6 billion worth of chicken fingers?

Oh easily. I’d say more. Probably a good bit more.
Don’t think I’ve ever disagreed with you more lmao.
Love me some Canes, my favorite fast food place. The key is to swap out the cole slaw for another piece of toast.
Lunch there is one acceptable non sandwich spot and it’s Riverside
el puerto
Riverside
Afghan Kabob lunch buffet
The big 3
I used to get Cane’s before or after every game I drove down for (which was only a couple times a year). Loved that place. Cane’s opened on the outskirts of Nova so I can satisfy my craving locally now and can eat non fast food in Charlottesville.
Al Carbon needs more love on this thread
Going a little east of the Cville food scene, anyone have any Richmond food recommendations? Going to take my wife for an anniversary weekend in Richmond in mid-December and looking for thoughts on food / activities. Will likely do a nice dinner and show one night and wander around the city another day.
I’m personally a big fan of Can Can Brasserie. Unfortunately lived there during Covid so I have fewer recs than I normally would
Perlys is a great brunch or breakfast spot too
