Thanks! Didn't know that.

I had dinner at celladora last week. Amazing food - fantastic dips and small plates, and the bahn mi fried rice was delicious, even with me avoiding the pork sausage.

Only criticism was that I didn’t like the wine, but I also don’t like wine, so joke’s on me.

Rare Old Times has it as part of their Full Irish breakfast. It's not the best you'll ever have, but it's fine.

Related, you can find blood sausage in some hispanic grocery stores on the southside.

I grew up with Golden Skillet (there are still a few in eastern NC, centered around Ahoskie.) The ones back there had pretty good eastern NC BBQ, particularly for a fast food fried chicken joint. Otherwise, the mac and cheese was decent, and the fried chicken isn't going to win any awards, but it's good.

My wife had a primary care visit coded as preventative care because she asked the resident about a mole. Because of that one question, the visit went from free to $250.

Also, they tried to charge her for an hour and a half visit, because the resident had to run around and find her supervising doctor to approve what she had done. The resident was with her a total of 20 minutes.

I love VCU dental care, but VCU Health is a crock of shit.

I work from home and rarely drive. Mass transit is a bit of the pain unless you're taking the Pulse, but the city is fairly bike-friendly. Actual bike infrastructure is a bit sparse, but the city itself is pretty doable by bike.

There will be parts of the city that will be rather inaccessible (getting to a Trader Joe's will be a hike) but if you're comfortable with urban biking and the risks that entails, it's doable.
