Chef Justin Burdett's Guide to Asheville

Asheville is a very artist-driven town with a huge focus on supporting the local businesses. I love Asheville because it has always felt like home to me and it's the perfect mix of city and small town with beautiful mountains. It is Beer City USA. Leaving with a few local brews is the best way to take a part of Asheville home with you.

North Asheville Tailgate Market + City Market

Asheville has a great farmers market scene, which are a great way to connect with local growers and artisans to really see what the food community here is all about. My personal favorite is the North Asheville Tailgate Market at UNCA, which is on Saturdays. It's the market to meet the farmers. The Asheville City Market on Saturday mornings is a great one for families and visitors because it has local produce, but also crafts and live entertainment.

Gan Shan Station

We come here for lunch. It opened this year and they are serving cool Asian dishes in a kind of hipster-style setting. I love the fried rice bowl with black bean chicken.

This is a little neighborhood spot near our house. It's just a cool place to get a beer and some pub grub.

BEER

Wedge Brewery

When we have the time and a babysitter, Wedge Brewery is a cool spot for a beer. I think it is one of the best breweries in town.
