Huh, TIL. I've never parked anywhere other than first floor.

You're looking at this the wrong way - rationality for normal people isn't a factor here.
Sure, you could wait a few weeks for normal shipping or use regular air freight, but instead you have the biggest cargo plane in the world filled with cigarettes straight from the biggest American manufacturer flown directly to your billionaire playhouse for the orgy. You do it because you can.

Reply to Best steak in RVA? by sbr___
Depends on what you're after. For a thick cut strip or porterhouse your best bets are Buckhead's or Bookbinder's. For a filet I'd say L'Oppossum. For a sous vide tenderloin it's Lemaire, no question.

If you want to splurge, Buckhead's and Bookbinder's are both great. If you want to splurge but spend less than you'd expect, try Lemaire at the Jefferson. They're all worth trying at least once.

And artichokes? Or either/or?

Respect. I feel like the answer is bacon.
The Industrial is my usual go to but the Colombo is so different from anything else around town.

Other than artichoke hearts, what should I add to the Colombo? It's delicious but I feel like it needs one more ingredient.

Reasonable people can disagree on which bagel place makes the best bagel, but I can't imagine thinking anywhere in town makes a better bagel sandwich than Cupertino's.

Randolph is a great option for in the city. Fulton may be worth a look as well.

You're not far off, the place is named after the owner's dog.
Not that it matters, but I'm an avowed Cupertino's stan. Chewy's is miles better than Nate's, though.

Reply to Going for 4 days, which area to stay in? West Broad Village or North Chesterfield? by IMicrowaveSteak
If you can find an Airbnb in Jackson Ward/Scott's Addition/Manchester/the Fan/Museum District and are comfortable staying in one, I'd strongly recommend that just because you'll be much closer to things to do. If that's not an option, I'd say West Broad Village (delicious bagels nearby at Cupertino's).
Since you'll be here this weekend, 100% go to the Folk Festival Saturday or Sunday. You can easily spend the whole day there if you want, or head on to other attractions (the most walkable parts of the river are literally right next to the venue).
