Adventures in Asheville: Noms

I expected it to be a very old fashioned, traditional Southern town, but Asheville actually has a really cool and quirky dining scene...which we took full advantage of.

Nine Mile, a restaurant that features Caribbean-inspired dishes, is one of the leaders in Asheville's locavore and organic movements. We were lucky enough to be staying within walking distance.

And, of course, we washed down our spicy and delicious entrees with some refreshing craft beer.


We also tried the Tupelo Honey Café. This restaurant features "new South" cuisine, and they take pride in their fresh farm-to-table dishes. We had been looking forward to eating at this restaurant throughout our stay, but unfortunately, we got hungry right around the same time that the NCAA Men's Basketball National Championship game came on TV! Luckily, the Tupelo Honey Café does to go orders!

We ordered a lot; this way, we could try a little of everything and have leftovers for the drive home!

We finished up our honeymoon with full bellies and the game on in the background, as we looked through all of the Facebook photos that our friends and family had uploaded from our wedding.

What's your favorite local eatery in your neck of the woods?
