Cassava

Recently my Wife has discovered a new local eatery for us. Normally we only go for breakfast and coffee however this was the last weekend of Cassava's Tasting Menu. It was one of the best dining experiences that I could ask for. Every dish had you looking forward to next. The staff is warm and inviting making you feel at home. If you are ever in the Outer Richmond this is the place to eat.
