Located on the ground floor of the historic Citizen Times Building, Session Cafe & Bar is part of the community aspect to Citizen Vinyl, a company that celebrates and continues the analog traditions of music recording. The menu changes daily to reflect produce options and seasons, but whatever you get, be prepared to feast! Photo via Facebook Session Cafe & Bar Canipelli exclusively sources ingredients from North Carolina farms, breweries, distilleries (yes, Edna Rhyne is found here!), and gardens to create fresh and authentic Italian dishes. What happens when you take Italian dishes and culinary traditions but use local Appalachian ingredients? The incredible Cucina 24. Situated in downtown Asheville, this Italian restaurant has been around since 2008 and was started by Chef Brian Canipelli after he moved to the area in 2003.
Do not skip the cheese board when you come. Led by founder and owner Chef Jason, the team here strives to constantly redefine the meaning of vegan cuisine. Opened in 2011, fruits and vegetables drive the menu. This one is for my vegan readers, though even vegan food skeptics will be raving about Plant. Stop by after visiting the iconic Biltmore Estate. You can visit their tasting room in Asheville’s Biltmore Village neighborhood. Using the “ancient art of the hills,” they infuse their spirits, made of heirloom corn and grains, with foraged greenery and special mixes that have been passed down through generations.
Founders Chris Bower and Rett Murphy make sure to incorporate North Carolina into every spirit they create. In a city known as Beer Town USA, Edna Rhyne Distilling Company stands out for its spirits.

James Beard Finalist Chef de Cuisine Cleophus Hethington has put together a menu that celebrates the culinary traditions of the African diaspora. Located in The Block, Benne on Eagle takes its inspiration from a Ghanian Adinkra symbol known as Sankofa, roughly translated as “go back and get it.” From the name to the décor to the menu, everything about this restaurant is inspired by the revitalization of a neighborhood that was once known as Asheville’s Black Wall Street. You can get a classic biscuits and gravy dish but there are also tons of sandwich options as well. Founders Jason and Carolyn Roy opened up their first location in 2013 with aim of combining their love of Southern cooking and commitment to keeping things local into the most perfect biscuit creations. With three locations around Asheville, you do not want to miss stopping by Biscuit Head at least once on your trip. Nothing quite says Southern food like some fluffy, buttery biscuits.
