Food Scene
The Admiral
400 Haywood RdGourmet food, often written about in a former dive bar
Conveniently located beside Wicked Weed brewing and also very close to all other downtown attractions. I would suggest showing up Friday's. Nothing beats starting a night out with Mexican food and 2 dollar craft drafts. That's right 2 dollar 16oz local beer.

A short drive (20 miles) from downtown Asheville takes you up, up, up on the Blue Ridge Parkway to Craggy Gardens. As you approach the area, you will first see a sign for the Craggy Picnic Area to the left, a short drive up the mountain to many picnic tables and gorgeous hike across the bald. If you continue straight on the Parkway a few more miles, you will reach the Visitor Center for panoramic mile-high views east and west. Enjoy the crisp air, summer rhododendron, and super scenic trails. Since this location is more than 3,500 feet higher in elevation than Asheville, temperatures 10-20 degrees cooler than the city. If you are greeted by low clouds and fog, wait a bit.
