This is the place for delicious food for a cause! The restaurant was created as a job training for folks staying at our center for abused women/children, called Safelight. The chef runs the kitchen using as much local food as possible while teaching valuable job skills. Great food at a great price for a great cause. Downtown.

You can't go wrong with this iconic restaurant which has operated since I was a child. Next to Mount Pisgah, so you may want to plan a hike or drive on the parkway. GREAT homemade food with spectacular views! And at a reasonable price. Don't worry if there's a wait. It goes quickly and you can buy a bottle of wine or beer and sit on the rockers while soaking up the scenery! Sadly, it closes every year the last day of October. DON'T miss this place if you get the chance!

This is a wonderful restaurant tucked away in a cool neighborhood of Brevard, NC, called the Lumberyard District. Hip, rustic vibe. You can order a meat (ribs, pulled pork, chicken, catfish, pork loin, smoked sausage) and 3 sides for $14. They offer a variety of southern sides, salads, and sandwiches. Great beer selection an a neat outdoor area with picnic tables, corn hole games, and a fire pit. We shared a pulled pork plate, 3 sides and a banana pudding for dinner and walked away full and happy!

The BEST bbq ribs around! Get the blueberry chipotle ribs (voted best regional dish on Good Morning America for a reason) and try some delish sides like sweet potato souffle or collard greens. They also have good vegetarian options. Laid back and located in an old diner in the River Arts District. Plan to spend a day there. Check the website for times and days of operation. They also have a location closer to Hendersonville on Hwy 25A.

This was the home of poet/author, Carl Sandburg and is in a beautiful setting with great hiking trails. Make sure you stop by the barns to pet the baby goats. Mrs. Sandburg was an award winning goat breeder and the lineage of these goats continues . This is not far from our place and usually a great stop on the way in or out. The only fee if for a tour of the home, but you can hike or tour the grounds and barns without charge.

The Biltmore Estate is on of the largest privately owned homes in the US. Go online for a description, and for discounted tickets. Plan to spend most of the day there if you go, the grounds are magnificent. They've expanded and there are now several restaurants. The ticket is a bit pricey, but they do have specials. And if you live nearby the discounted yearly pass may be worth buying on the day of ticket purchase.
