This Southern diner is worth the wait for mimosas, Bloody Marys, omelets and home fries. A ONE-HOUR WALK Maymont, 2201 Shields Lake Drive. This 100-acre estate offers wildlife, a Japanese garden and a nature center. A QUICK BITE Arby's Short Pump, 4250 Pouncey Tract Road. A fast-food restaurant decked out as a Pacific Northwest ski lodge, with margaritas, pad Thai with chicken, and burritos brought right to the table. A LOCAL TASTE The 17th Street Farmers' Market, 17th Street and Main Street. Locally grown vegetables and handmade crafts in an open-air market. A CULTURAL FIX Monument Avenue, between Roseneath Road and Lombardy Street. A highway of Civil War memories, featuring statues of Robert E.
