Just Cats Clinic: Where Every Cat Gets to Live Beyond Nine Lives
Ask any cat owner about the worst part of a vet visit and you will hear the same story: the carrier, the car ride, and a waiting room full of barking dogs. Dr. Elizabeth Chapman decided Reston deserved better. In April 2014 she opened Just Cats Clinic at historic Lake Anne Plaza, becoming Reston’s first veterinary practice dedicated exclusively to cats. Twelve years later, it has grown into one of Northern Virginia’s most respected feline hospitals, now open 365 days a year in a newly renovated building at 11401 North Shore Drive that anchors the front of Lake Anne.

A Hidden Gem Tasting Menu Showcases a Beloved Chef’s Career in Fairfax
In our Dining Reports, we share a firsthand perspective of a recent restaurant visit, covering everything from the vibe to must-get dishes. See more in the Eater app. Legendary Virginia chef Jonathan Krinn revels in the unexpected at Elyse, from the tiny 30-seat location in Fairfax to the ingredients that range from kangaroo tartare to pan-seared sugar toads. Two years in, he has reliable local clientele that are loving what he calls his “incubator” of a five course tasting menu ($140 per person, with options for three courses) that swap out regularly for the seasons and to accommodate whatever zany produce and proteins he’s getting from producers he’s been developing relationships with for a quarter-century.
