Linda and I decided that after a couple years of missing out on Broad Appetit that it was time to check it out again. The Richmond food and art scene is booming, but for the first time our friends, Mai and Tony, who own The Hungry Turtle Food Truck were participating, so we definitely wanted to check it out.
Getting down to Broad Street around 11:30 was a great idea; not too crowded yet, and not too hot. Additionally, the beer lines were non existent. Overall, this is a great event that should not be missed. Lots of great food, art, beer, music, and people make for a great experience.
There are a lot of people that come to this event, but everyone is there to have a good time.
In addition to the food offerings, there is a focus on the RVA art scene. There are several stores and galleries such as this one called, Quirk.
Here's a close up of The Hungry Turtle's "pho dog". This was very tasty and many others agreed as well, it won second place overall.
