Reply to comment by bodydamage in Richmond Times-Dispatch: Tysons food facility in Glen Allen to close, 700 workers to be impacted according to union by whw53
Thanks for giving me more insight. I work for a company that was a vendor there and we have been burned by them a few times. It just didn't seem like a very stable place to work, but like you said that's quite an investment so hopefully it proves to be a good place to work.

That cauliflower from blue atlas is definitely an honorable mention on my menu.

I ran an auto repair shop nearby back in the late 80's early 90's. Their chow mei fun was so good. I had it at least twice a week. Sad to hear it has gone downhill. Back then what was a Texaco on Cary also had the best ribs at lunchtime.

If you look at google reviews, the day camp seems solid, but the grooming does not, but since Angela is going out there, maybe she can straight out their grooming.

This place is absolutely wonderful for our pups. We bring our two dogs there once or twice a week and also get them groomed there. They are so excited when we get there and tuckered out when we get them home.

Loved this place for decades. Noticed a drop in the quality of chicken a few years back. Used to be juicy and soft now just hard and chewy.

Their general two's tofu with an order of crab Rangoon is still my number one comfort food though, and that shit will feed 2 people for 2 meals each!

Anyone remember the late 90s early Aughts when fu Jian was the shit? When I lived in the fan this was a staple. I made this same comment a few months ago and got absolutely FLAMED but I'm out of the loop. What the hell happened to fu iian?! They used to be the only place in rva that would mix wonton and egg drop soup ffs

I’ve never gone into Fu Jian expecting anything close to good food, but even I would be really disappointed with this

Fu Jian has always been terrible; I’m sure with food inflation they’re just seeing what people will tolerate.

Ugh, can we please not post random pics of our food that we are upset about? It’s already ruined r/tacobell for me. Don’t wish that upon this sub.

Hang in there. Can I ask why you want to go inpatient? Is this to be out of the community, so to speak, while you get a month or so sober under your belt? Feel free to DM me if you want. Not trying to pry, just trying to figure out which is the best direction to point you in. Hugs to you! The first step is always the hardest and you've already taken it.

Did you see his more recent special Cold Lasagne Hate Myself 1999? Lol
His series of specials on Netflix are incredible.
