RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) — This is for all our foodies! RVA is known for things like its history and outdoor activities, but in a new report from Forbes, the city is noted as a culinary hotspot.
In its report, Forbes said the pandemic prevented people from traveling to their usual spring getaways. So instead, they suggest a road trip to Richmond.
