Virginia’s historic buildings are prone to all sorts of repurposing, and it makes for some of the most unique dining experiences you can find. Take, for example, an eatery in Alexandria called Virtue Feed and Grain. This fascinating building was once used as a feed house in the 1800s, and none of its original character has been lost. Not to mention the fact that the food is equally enticing.
