WLS Foodie Finds in Richmond

 Hey everyone.  I thought I'd start a thread for great meals in Richmond and the surrounding areas that are WLS friendly.  I'll get the ball rolling with The Blue Goat.

The Blue Goat is located at 5710 Grove Ave. Their whole menu is small plates that are served family style.  This has a lot of advantages for us.  Everyone orders a dish or two (or three) and everyone shares.  No need to get yourself a big plate and not eat everything and you get to try a lot of good food.  Lots of good protein choices here.  They specialize in locally sourced foods and imported cheeses.  I've been twice and really liked it.

 Welcome to Virginia Melissa.  Feel free to suggest Petersburg locations as you find them as well. That's usually included in the Tri-City area with Richmond.
