Food Scene

Because you can't beat the food (Spanish Tapas), the drinks, the vibe. Try to get seated at the kitchen bar. You cannot reserve early enough. Go for the early or late if that's all they have open. Worth it.

Having a drink on the Sunset Terrace at the Grove Park Inn (locals will never use the OMNI part) is a real treat. Of course sunset is the best time. The neighborhood surrounding the Inn is one of the oldest and most beautiful in Asheville. Poke around. You won't be disappointed.

The Folk Art Center usually has a well-curated show of some sort in the upstairs gallery. The gift shop is stocked with makers who all belong to the Southern Highlands Craft Guild. Not your typical stuff by a long shot.
