Re: Swamp Travel Companion: Pick My Next City
Everything else: Coffee: Pollen (on the west side of downtown Asheville) is a hipster florist/coffee shop. Really tasty coffee, serving all of the finest blends from roasters that all the coffee nerds are up on (Sey, Onyx, etc.). Farewell in the south slope area, similar coffee offerings as Pollen, ...

Re: Swamp Travel Companion: Pick My Next City
Food: One of my favorite restaurants in the country is Curate, Chef Katie Button's Spanish restaurant. Get reservations for sure (or show up for a late lunch), but it's not super fancy. Mostly tapas style dishes done very similar to what I've had in Spain. It's right in one of the centers of downtow...

Breweries: Burial is really good, but the beer list is a little too stout dominant in my opinion. Sierra Nevada's complex, near the south end of the airport is massive. It's kind of Disneyworld of beer. Big open air amphitheatre out back, a garden you can walk through, pretty sure they offer brewery...

Re: The Live Music thread...
Was motivated to finally watch it after seeing the local punk band, Wolf-Face, do a set at Fest a week ago. Fucking blew my mind. Their schtick is that they all come out in essentially the Beavers' uniforms with Wolf masks on and all of their songs are written from the perspective of Teen Wolf. The...
