Jake and I’s FOOD trip to Asheville!

You guys!!

Jake and I went on a much-needed getaway to Asheville a few weeks ago, and I couldn’t wait to share this footage with you! Asheville was a beautiful city, and I wanted to share all we LOVED doing with you!

Here are the highlights of our trip:

White Duck Taco Shop: FABULOUS pork belly taco!! We also dug the classic steak and cheese. Check out their menu here: 

French Broad Chocolate Lounge: I can’t say enough good things about this spot. We had such a FAB time there and literally went back twice during our 3-day trip! We ordered the dark chocolate ginger cookie, salted peanut butter cup, dark chocolate hot chocolate (not drinking chocolate), bought two chocolate bars and came back for the BEST VEGAN ICE CREAM I’ve ever had!! I was ALL about that Buddha flavor and the toasted coconut. The two chocolate bars we got were a Vietnamese one (marouchocolate.com) and the special edition of French Broad’s Peru dark chocolate 85% that raises money for the rainforest! They were the sweetest, most helpful people, especially the girl we met who worked at the chocolate bar! Check them out here:

Three Dog Bakery– We got Bigbsy the peanut butter treats and he LOVES them!
Rocket Fizz– Jake and I got authentic Cheerwine, and some super fun taffy flavors (s’mores and chocolate chip cookie dough anyone?) 

Spice and Tea Exchange of Asheville– Jake got the coolest black tea that dates back to colonial days!

Vegan food at Rosetta’s Kitchen– I ordered a buddha bowl with a side of vegan cheese and J got a tempeh reuben with slaw. We also shared a peanut butter chocolate vegan cookie and an Earth kombucha, which was YUMMY! I highly recommend the kombucha.

-All Souls Pizza– Do not miss out on the fermented veggies plate with homemade bread and olive oil, OR the pepperoni pizza! It was so tasty!

The MAGNIFICENT Grove Park Inn is NOT to be missed! Jake and I went at sunset and had a glass of wine as the sun went down. It is a memory I will always treasure!
