Anyone remember the late 90s early Aughts when fu Jian was the shit? When I lived in the fan this was a staple. I made this same comment a few months ago and got absolutely FLAMED but I'm out of the loop. What the hell happened to fu iian?! They used to be the only place in rva that would mix wonton and egg drop soup ffs

I ran an auto repair shop nearby back in the late 80's early 90's. Their chow mei fun was so good. I had it at least twice a week. Sad to hear it has gone downhill. Back then what was a Texaco on Cary also had the best ribs at lunchtime.

Yeah I pretty much used them as my grocery shopping back in the day. Their boneless spareribs were like candy.

I lived in those shitty 3 story apartments at Stafford and main. Frequently abused the secret parking lot behind sticky rice. Fu Jian was cheap, good, and saw me through at least 2 years of vcu lol
