[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Centreville and Chantilly are really diverse. [/quote] in terms of chain restaurants?[/quote] I’m really so confused by people insisting these areas are mostly chain restaurants. Are you just trolling? Maybe you haven’t actually been there? There are so many non-chain restaurants - drive around for 5 minutes and you’d see what I mean just in Korean ones alone. [/quote] +1, there are so many little family owned restaurants. Yes, many are in strip malls. They tend to be inexpensive and casual, maybe that is PP's issue. There is not a lot of fine dining in the burbs. If you are a gourmand or a DINK then it's not for you but most of us don't eat out frequently and when we do we have a budget and kids to consider.[/quote] As someone who lives out here and loves it except for the restaurant factor, I think this is part of it. I can get food at mid-range prices that's just as good as what we had in the city. But yes, there's something less appealing about restaurants in strip malls, very few of which invest much in decor. So the atmosphere isn't quite the same. And let's face it, as a family of four, we are not exactly bringing much style to the scene![/quote]
