Richmond Magazine’s Genevelyn Steele has a two page review of L’Opossum restaurant.

Excerpt:

L’Opossum has so much fun with its name, vittles and décor that you could just as easily call it LOLpossum.

With a classical menu of rabbit, baby chicken and foie gras that could incite a PETA protest, choices are playfully categorized by course — “Les Appetizers,” “Les Entrées” and “Lez Deezerts” — avoiding small plates entirely. We begin with tubby escargot on a ham biscuit. The snails need more salt, but the sweet, garlicky beurre blanc and house-made quick bread redeems. Another appetizer, Chapel Creek Oysters Rockefeller, divides the table; one loves the crème fraîche in the spinach filling, while another had her heart set on less cream. Agreeable to both is the fragrant tableside squirt of absinthe. A 1990s classic, grilled Caesar salad, resurfaces in eggy, white anchovy glory. We wipe the plate with our bread to get it all.
