We believe that Southern food is less about any particular ingredient and more about a state of mind. Appalachian cuisine is deeply rooted in our heritage – born through centuries of “making do,” never wasting and seeing delicious opportunities everywhere.
In Haywood County, history, resourcefulness and farm fresh flavors come together to create innovative menus and a vibrant farm-to-table experience. Take the journey with us and learn how to cook, eat, and drink like a local.
