Official Asheville, North Carolina Thread: Bras Optional

I wouldn't put it past him. But in these instances, he is innocent.

 

Damn asheville, only 83 but it feels a lot hotter. Calm those hippie tits of yours.

 

Burial beer, I am in you

 

Drove up from Greenville just to get the pregnant wife a dumpling boat from Gan Shan. Worth it.

 

Made it out of Shining Rock Wilderness

 

I’ll be here soon

 

You’re not gonna go all the way to Asheville to drink Mich Ultras are you?

 

we are gonna play golf and he’s gonna get taken for so much money that he’ll only be able to afford those

 

Tobias do you live in asheville?

 

yes i do

 

Underrated ITT: Asheville Pizza Co. The pizza is great and the house beers are good af. I had Perfect Day IPA and Perfect Night Black IPA this time and both were outstanding.

Also tried out the new Zilicoah Brewery a little north of downtown. Good beers and awesome spot by the French Broad River.

Burial was outstanding as usual. More hot chicks than moms which is a plus for a brewery. Got shrimp and avocado toast from their food window; recommend.

All that was Friday. Did Oskar Blues today after emerging from the woods. Had cheeseburger and a Blue Dream IPA. They had some Ten Fidy Mocha Java tallboys in stock and my buddy bought 3 cans for $15 apiece

 

is the river arts district anything special?

 

asheville pizza makes their food with shards of glass. used to live across from one and it was so good but felt like my stomach was bleeding the next morning. thought it may just be me but a buddy came up and had the same issue.

still will eat it tho

 

The rooms at downtown inn and suites smell like bleach but it’s such a good value. $160 a night right in the middle of downtown and it’s even got a pool and free breakfast

 

i would say no but i don’t make it to that area too much

 

are there any good living areas downtown? asking for a friend, my penis.

 

i don’t live downtown so can’t say for sure. lots of stuff on merimon and west asheville is coming up for sure

you moving here?

 

There are cheaper airbnbs.

It's getting there. New restaurants are coming up and the people are cool. Work in progress though

 

By far the best... But I mean it's not like there's a ton of inventory that's also affordable

 

possibly. depends if i get the firefighter job there.

 

i’ll start lighting every building i see on fire just to create more demand srs

 

In dt? And where you can do only 1 night?

Edit: dog friendly was also a factor in our decision

 

I didn’t know we were Playing mini golf lol

 

They threw up some new apt building since last time I was there right across from the bus station. Always a nice selection of rough looking bus riders hanging right outside your front door

 

high five.

 

Yeah. They're rare and not a lot, but we take the dogs and stay for like 130ish a night at airbnbs right on grove street

 

Noted for next time. Inclusive all you can eat breakfast is nice when you’re going hiking though

 

Sheeeeeit $160??

 

Heading up to asheville this weekend with the wife any must do restaurants/bars/breweries? Looking to do some hiking and probably check out the glass sculptures at the biltmore. What else should be on our itinerary. Any particularly good hiking areas around?

 

You tell me

 

i live near the other one in south asheville. when i first moved up here i asked my old boss about it. he very angrily said it was the best bbq in town but he would never go again bc they gave the obamas free food

normal guy

 

You’re close to my in-laws. River Arts is probably a few years away but they’ve already added a neat brewery behind 12 Bones and that coffee house is p good.

 

technically in arden but it’s considered south asheville. had rocky’s for dinner

 

.

 

Walked around the RAD last week. Wife bought a bracelet. Was lucky that was all she got. Cool area would peruse again

 

Oh man, now I'm triggered thinking about trying to turn onto right Hendersonville Rd from Mills Gap. Thanks a lot, Tobias

 

I still havent been to 12 Bones. Whenever I ask about it I seem to get mixed reviews. Can I get a verdict once and for all?

 

It’s worthwhile. It’s not the best BBQ in North Carolina (that distinction goes to Honey Monk’s Lexington BBQ), but it’s very good. Nice smoke, homemade sauces, and good sides.

 

Yeah that's similar to the evals we get for BBQ in Charlotte. Top tier spots seem to be outside the big metros ...

 

One of the para’s at my old job is a Honey Monk scion. Ate that dankness for free on the reg.

 

Most definitely. I'm partial to Mac's but it's not the best BBQ in the state.

 

You're very fortunate. I'd kill for some right now. Goat hush puppies and the only slaw I will formally recognize

 

I’d hit it up whenever I had company come to town or a case in Davidson County but work catered it around 4 out of every 5 events too. I think they’ve got even smokier within the last 2 years or so—it’s basically a BBQ foodgasm at this point.

That spicy sauce they leave on the tables and sell at the counter is straight fire. If you ever see it at your local grocer do yourself a favor and buy every bottle in stock.

 

lexington bbq isnt even the best bbq in lexington

 

As a native of eastern NC, this post is triggering me

 

BBQ discussions are one of the few topics that are better on homeboards than TMB. These sumbitches on Gamecock Central know every hole in the wall in North or South Carolina

 

That Bonfire BBQ place on Patton near West Asheville is trash though

 

i really like bonfire tbh
