I found her at Pets at Play in church hill—not sure if she was working elsewhere as well.

Place was decent in the 90s.
The Eatery is the only good option now. China Panda has been mediocre for a decade too.

I thought the same thing, I grew up in the west end and loved the one of quioccasin. I tried the one down here and they are definitely not the same place, the one on Sheppard had some of the worst Chinese food I've ever had

i've not been to the china panda in town, but i've gotten takeout from the one on quioccasin road a few times and dig it. i'm like 90% certain they're the same place but didn't want to tempt fate.

I have failed. It must have been sacrificed to free up storage space

I know this is culturally a bit British for most Americans but it is important to shout.

Since we're going fantasy, I'll call up a few from the past:
Soup: Lobster Bisque from now gone Zuppa
Starter: The Perfect Egg from now defunct Dutch and Co
Main: Tuna and Osso Buco from now shuttered Mamma Zu
Dessert: I'm not a big dessert guy, so insert your favorite here
Man I miss some former great RVA spots.

Yeah I pretty much used them as my grocery shopping back in the day. Their boneless spareribs were like candy.

Why do all Chinese restaurants have the same menu pictures...and why are they all faded light blue?
