    Eater should make an interactive map detailing all of the locations that they have made videos about. That way if people happen to be near one of these establishments that they’ve previously seen on a video, they can go and have a direct experience there. Anyone up for the challenge? Eater?!

    It’s kind of mind boggling to see what these bakers are doing. Fresh milled flour, home made croissant dough and wood fired ovens. As someone in the food industry for 15 years, hardly no one expends that level and care in baking bread and pastry much less using a wood fired oven. Amazing!

    Years ago, on a visit to Richmond, I did visit Sub Rosa. I think, I happened upon it. And, I didn't think too much of it. I can't even remember what I ordered. But, I do remember it was a good experience. Of course, I had no idea about their being a wood fired bakery. And, I didn't realize all the hard work that makes the bakery what it is. Wow. When Evrim Dogu talked about his favorite bread and how it's achieved by the masonry having soaked up the heat and how that affects the texture. And, those unconventional croissants! The fig jam and cheese croissant sounded particularly alluring. I need to go back to Sub Rosa again. This time...with a whole new appreciation.

Millies is a Richmond staple. ZZQ’s is amazing BBQ and Proper Pie Company’s savory pies are delicious. La Bodega is really good too, for authentic Cuban food.
