When traveling around on all ends of town, we try to find some food spots that folks are talking about. We had passed by Brooklyn Bros Pizza in south Asheville – Arden NC many times, but never stopped by. Finally, we did!
The Garlic Knots were great. Breads with Italian dinners in a must!
The Eggplant Parmesan we incredible! Made perfect.
Our photos of the actual pizza did not come out, so we will be heading back soon to try again. Stay tuned for part two!

Ok sushi lovers, a new spot is coming to town named Mr. Sushi, so get ready to try it out and let us know how it is. Now there are lots of places all around the world named Mr. Sushi, but as far as we know, this is a local spot that stands on its own. They are located in the Market Center gas station, where Bojangles used to be, but don’t go just yet as they are currently under construction. But as soon as they open, you know we will be one of the first people to have a taste.
Dr. Greene and the folks over at Asheville Vision Associates in Biltmore Park have launched a Date Night for 2 Giveaway on Facebook that is going pretty viral. You can win dinner for 2 at Luella’s, dessert for 2 at YaYa’s, and a movie at the Regal Grande. After reading the hundreds of comments, it seems like everyone needs a break, a date, a night out; and if possible with the person they love. The contest goes on until November 21, 2016 so you still have time to enter. See the Asheville Vision Associates – Biltmore Park Facebook Page for more info!
There are times we go for weeks at a time without a burger. Asheville has such a variety of food options that the choices are sometimes overwhelming. The past few days have not been one of those times. We actually stopped by two places and ordered a cheeseburger that made us very happy that we did.
The first was Farm Burger in south Asheville. I ordered a burger with cheese, a fried egg, pork belly, tomatoes, onions, ketchup and mayo. And this burger tasted incredible.
The second was The Social in east Asheville. I ordered a simple cheeseburger with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, ketchup and mayo. And again, I was brought to a very tasteful place in my mouth and life.
I do not know who makes your favorite burger, but these are two spots that are definitely worth checking out. And both of these places have different personalities. Farm Burger is very burger-centric, while The Social is like a family friendly dive bar with pool tables, dart boards, and entertainment just about every night of the week. And both have have their place in the Asheville Foodie Community. Thank you for making some great burgers!
