Amazing breakfasts -- you must try the bacon! -- and friendly service, about 30 minutes from the house, in West Asheville. They also have lunch and dinner, but it's famous for breakfast! Make sure you have plenty of time, as there can be lengthy waits for tables.

So happy that they opened up a place in Hendersonville; there are a couple more in Asheville. They have the best tacos, inspired by all different types of cuisines (Thai, southern, Korean, etc.). Easy, fast, and not expensive. We also love the queso and chips.
