Can can cafe in the Library of Va - 10/10. So Fresh and huge portions. Went for the soup bc I miss Pop’s creamy tomato (chef/owner at pops runs this kitchen) and it was Poifect with fontina cheesy bread. Also got pastries which were excellent - the almond croissant doesn’t skimp on the filling. They are Only open weekdays just fyi.
Peter changs lunch - food was not as good as it’s been in the past. Also the service was terrible, down to the server forgetting dishes altogether so we asked to cancel them, then they show up on the bill. Forgot anything we asked for the whole lunch. it was bizarre. Sad.
Lalos Cocina on broad was hands down the worst Mexican (“Mexican/American”) I’ve ever had. The beef was waterlogged with zero seasonings not even salt or pepper??? It had nothing making it Mexican food…the salsa was bad bc it had an abundant of old pre-ground pepper in it. Wondering why they didn’t sprinkle some on the beef. When the salsa is bad that’s when you know to not go back. Partner ordered a Chile relleno that had raw batter in it??? It was so so bad. Service was bad as well despite 25 people working here. Couldn’t recommend less.

Great intel on the Pops owner running that kitchen at the cafe! I will have to try when I am in the area next.
