RICHMOND, Va. — There is so much to see and do in central Virginia. Every Tuesday, the Virginia This Morning team will share a list of six of their favorite things.
Each week, the topic will change, but the goal will remain the same — to inspire you to try something new!
Since it’s #TakeoutTuesday, we thought it was fitting to share some of our favorite local places to grab and go.

Address: 5303 Oaklawn Boulevard, Hopewell, VA 23860
“[My parents have] been taking me to Kanpai since I was an infant in a baby carrier. Usually we try to eat in whenever we can, but on Easter Sunday this year, we ordered a big meal for takeout. The food was delicious and the portion sizes are always plentiful. It wasn't the same without their amazing chefs and waitstaff making the food right in front of us, but it was a familiar taste that made us feel much better for Sunday dinner.”
