2 Asheville Foodies to be reckoned with

The Asheville Foodie scene is growing by leaps and bounds. Not only do we have many locals simply infatuated with great food, but we also have individuals and groups that visit all of the time to do nothing but wine and dine. On top of that, we have foodie festivals, contests, and so much more. Yum is a common word here. We eat, rate it, express it through our social conduits, and businesses grow by reputation, community interaction, etc.

Just a few nights ago, Fiore's Ristorante Toscana opened their doors in South Asheville on 2310 Hendersonville Road. If you are headed south on Hendersonville Rd, they are about 1/2 mile before you hit Airport Rd. Perfect positioning for a growing Southside community. Fiore's has been one of our personal favorites for many years and it continues to run head to head, and ahead of many of the true foodie options in the community. Congratulations to this family and company!

*Pictured above is local foodie and wine expert Kevin Schwartz and Chef Anthony Cerrato, owner of Fiore's and one of the existing silent storms on the Asheville Foodie scene. Lets eat!

Here is a clip off of their website:

Asheville’s ad club fills a void in WNC’s communication and marketing industry. We exist to provide a place for exchange of ideas, an opportunity to learn from each other and outside experts in the field, to recognize our creative brilliance with the nationally respected ADDY awards program, to give back through public service, government relations, and to offer mentoring. Oh yeah, we also love to have a good time!
