We were driving down Main Street after a disappointing trip to the Richmond Night Market last night when I caught sight of The Whip's red lights on a side street. It was a great summer night with a cool breeze and it begged to be enjoyed with a drink outdoors. Their outside seating was packed so we chose one of the two empty tables inside. We sighed with relief. Finally, a place
with historical detail mixed with modern charm that's not in
Gastown. The atmosphere is reminiscent of Six Acres but a notch down in pretension. This was exactly the kind of place we East Coasters had been looking for in the last 5 months. We got drinks - reasonably priced and an interesting range. We didn't order food but the choices looked great. Yam Frites, Eggplant chips, etc. for Tapas. The entree list had the choices of Protein, Sauce, Vegetable and Carb all laid out for a customized plate for dinner. Many tables were enjoying plates of deserts. I can't wait to go back and get a Sangaria pitcher of try out their brunch.
