Dinner at the Roosevelt - Church Hill, Richmond

I had the pleasure of attending a Juneteenth dinner at The Roosevelt and Chef Leah Branch knocked every course out of the park. I knew it would be a great restaurant for us to try out together.

ABOUT THE VENUE: "The Roosevelt is a neighborhood restaurant in a turn-of-the-last-century building in Church Hill, Richmond's oldest neighborhood. Our food is an untraditional celebration of the food of the South, served alongside a great wine list, a hearty roster of regional beers, and a selection of craft cocktails that'll knock your socks off.
The Roosevelt opened in Richmond, Virginia, in July 2011, to public and critical acclaim. The Roosevelt was named 2012 Restaurant of the Year by Style Magazine, Best New Restaurant in the Region by Richmond Magazine and awarded an Elby as the city's Best New Restaurant. The Roosevelt was again awarded Elbys in 2013 & 2017 for Best Cocktail Program, and in 2014 for Restaurant of the Year and Chef of the Year."

ABOUT THE CHEF: "Originally from Chesterfield, Virginia, Chef Leah Branch is a graduate of Johnson & Wales University in Charlotte, and was previously Executive Chef at Moonrakers in Beaufort, North Carolina. Her cooking has been featured on the Today Show, Vice Magazine and the Cooking Channel's "Sugar Showdown". She has a strong passion for Southern cuisine and strives to explore our regional foodways at The Roosevelt."
