DMV Dining Destinations | Discovering Richmond’s Unbelievably Delicious Szechuan Cuisine!
Traveling through Richmond, I looked up and found this Chinese restaurant highly recommended, so I had to check it out! 🧳🍴 The place was empty, maybe because it wasn't mealtime, and the decor was a bit dated - I was worried for a second there! 😟 But, to my surprise, the dishes we ordered were pretty good! Here's the lowdown: - Sichuan Cold Noodles: I found them just okay, mainly because they were too sweet for my taste. 🍜 - Couple's Lung Slices: They were gobbled up almost immediately! I didn't try them due to pregnancy, but Mr. Zhang from Chongqing said they were delicious and definitely not a miss. 👌 - Pumpkin Potato Pancakes: Super tasty! Crispy on the outside, sticky on the inside, with a red bean filling that's just sweet enough. 🥞❤️ - Boiled Fish: Delicious! The fish was super fresh, and the meat was tender, clearly not from frozen. The veggies inside were also fantastic. Highly recommend! 🐟💯 - Seafood Pot: I only tried the seafood, not the crispy rice, but my friend from Sichuan who loves crispy rice said it was delicious! 🦐🍲 - Ants Climbing a Tree (glass noodles with ground meat): Just average, wouldn't really recommend. 🐜🌲 - Mexican Chili Stir-fried Eggs with Shredded Meat: Recommended by the owner, and it was indeed perfect with rice. A must-try! 🌶️🥚🍖 - Pineapple Fried Rice: Ordered for the kids, but the leftovers were quickly devoured by the adults! 🍍🍚 Overall, I highly recommend this place, except for the cold noodles and the ants climbing a tree; everything else was delicious! If you're ever in Richmond, it's worth a visit. 🌟👍 Location: Chengdu Chinese Restaurant 9503 W Broad St suite C, Henrico, VA 23294 DMV Foodie | Travel | Restaurant Check-in @FoodiePotato.

Discover Richmond’s Hidden Gem: 避雷 Brings Authentic Chinese Delights to VA 🥢🍜
🔥🍴 Dive into the Buzz at Cheng Du Chinese Restaurant! 🍴🔥 Located at 9503 W Broad St # C, Henrico, VA 23294, Cheng Du offers a taste of China right in the heart of Richmond, VA. Here’s the real scoop from a recent visit: 📝 Customer Experience Report: - Ordered the Shredded Pork with Dried Tofu – sadly, the tofu wasn’t fresh and had a sour taste. 😕 - Communication breakdown: When the issue was raised, the response was less about apologies and more about upselling. 😬 - Refunds over Regrets: The dish was refunded but the apology was MIA. Seems like "sorry" got lost in translation! - Rice Ration: 3 people, but only 2 bowls of rice served without a heads-up. 🍚🍚?? While the experience had its bumps, every place has room for improvement. So, if you're curious about authentic Chinese flavors and ready to form your own opinion, give Cheng Du a shot. Just maybe double-check your order! 😉 💬 Share your experiences or tag a buddy who’s always up for a food adventure! #FoodiesOfRichmond #ChengDuTasteTest #RealTalk.
