Not here yet. Apparently hipster farm-to-table food takes a long time to prepare. I prefer wherever the fuck is quickest-to-my belly over this hippy shit

Here you go:

Those hippies can make some pretty bad-ass looking burgers and fries and sprinkle bacon everywhere so they can't be all bad.

Um, yeah I'd eat that hipster grub!

Turkey meatballs.  Lots of turkey meatballs of late.  No pic.  Not very glamorous...

 

But I'm down 42 pounds since September 20th, and no, that's not the only thing I've been eating, thankfully.  Various mustards and cheeses do spice them up a little bit though, and I'm not brand loyal, which also helps in terms of variety.  I need to start doing more salads though, because therein lies man's greatest opportunity for creativity.

Did someone say hipster food?  The rest of my weekend in Richmond.

Hot damn, what was that first place?  That tuna ceviche looks good.

The first place was Acacia.  It was good.

Fried chicken and biegnet donuts anyone?

From one of the usual suspects - The Architect's Kitchen in this case

Prepared a nice pasta with leftover scallop and shrimp.  Sure tasted better than restaurant pasta of recent memory if I may say so myself

Tomato Roasted Garlic Bacon Bisque

A post midnight snack from the earl of sandwich

In addition to quaffing the usual, there was a very tasty drunken noodles with soft shelled crab And crispy fried duck with panang sauce

Posh Chicken and Waffles With fixin's, and need I say ...

So tempted. Keep walking Grahame. Keep walking.

Some cotton candy after a great filet w/cab reduction and perfect tuffled mac & cheese.

Some 'small plates' from Hash House a Go Go, after finding the wait time for the "Bacchanal" Buffet at Caesars was some 5 hours+. Result: We were stuffed. Brent would have approved of the very tasty Biscuit.

Special Christmas version of Fred's with potatoes and Stella Rosa Stella Rosso bubbly red. Just right for tonight.

He would not, because they would run out right before they got to him.

Dat biscuit.

I hate you people.

Last indulgence until the other side of Death Valley

Bacon Pancakes from Aretha Frankenstein's.

Next time, I try the biscuit.
