Casual but nice atmosphere >and the food was incredible!! This place is kinda trendo-yup. But then again what place in Richmond that serves food not resembling Purina isn't? Try Millie's (if it is still open). There is also a brew-pub in the Fan area called the Taphouse that has some good beer. Try posting to va.general and see what you get from there too. good luck, Adam

Jean-Louis Paladin <frog> and Jimmy (the name escapes me right now) <redneck>. The food is very good. Groups of 2 or 3 really need only to make reservations a day or two ahead. Groups of 6> need to plan about a week or two ahead for Friday or Saturday nights. The second chef does a spot in that Julia Child cooks with Master Chefs series. The desserts are good...but rather unimaginative ( "amazing custard"= Creme Brulee, "Claufoooti"= Cherry Claufoutis).... If you are into this type of food....it's a can't miss.
