It is not the usual vibe for this town; no one's saying it's local or vegan or hippie. It is, however, the sort of place where an older couple can come in from the country and order kids' sizes and get them without an argument. It is also the sort of place that offers discounts, and seeing a milkshake Monday deal pushed me in that direction. My black raspberry chip delivered a robust flavor. So even though it's not what I came to Asheville for, I can say I've never left a Whit's disappointed.

Had stopped off at an outdoor store for supplies and decided to look around before getting back on the road, and already loved the cheeky name of the place so felt we had to explore. Came in w my senior Maltese and before I could ask, the manager was getting her water and welcoming us both. After chatting a bit, (I was overwhelmed by the huge selection of ice cream!), I shared it was a pretty tough week for us, as we had unexpectedly lost our younger Morkie pup due to a health issue he couldn't recover from. The compassionate owner, learning we were about to get back im the car for another 4 hours, packed my little pup a cup of ice water to go and gave us royal treatment while we were there. Thank you for being a kind-hearted local business owner and showing so much kindness to a couple of passersby having a bit of a tough day. I highly recommend this spot for a perfect summer treat, or in our case, a bright little spot of sunshine in a tough day.

There are a TON of flavors to choose from. You can customize and mix whichever flavors you want - the possibilities are endless. I went with one of their recommended mixes "The cookie dough yo-yo" without the fudge in a waffle bowl dipped in chocolate and it was incredible. My husband got strawberry with cookie dough (I mean, wut) and he said it was really good. After you order, you can watch them dip it out and put your combination on a marble slab (hence the name) and use metal spoons to combine it together until it is thoroughly mixed. You can also choose to mix in or sprinkle a number of topping options for no additional charge. Everyone was really friendly and helpful in explaining the process since it's new for most people. We will definitely be going back next time we visit!

I arrived on a Saturday at 5:17 PM, walked in through an unlocked door, and the employee flatly told me, "we're closed." I asked, "Aren't your opening hours until 6 PM, or did I misread the website?" She responded: "I don't check the website much, but in the winter we close at 5 PM." The issue isn't closing early once -- it's having inconsistent hours across multiple platforms and then showing zero concern for the customer inconvenience (no apology, no attempt to help, no sign or clear communication). If winter hours are different, update them everywhere and reflect them at the door. As-is, customers can waste a trip even when they arrive before the posted closing time.

I recommend the fried offerings, shrimp shumai, the egg rolls for sure, they are excellent. The dumplings are fine, the octopus balls are great, but off the menu I think. The dipping sauces for these is a favorite of mine. I typically get a sushi burrito. I recommend a spicy hot cheeto in one, it weirdly works with the right combination of stuff. The marinated tuna is alright and so is a shrimp tempura as protein. Otherwise, whatever you like. I typically do carrots, edamame, oshinko (pickled, radish I suspect), maybe seaweed salad. Avocado is nice, but of course has an up upcharge. Pretty good, the poke bowls are decent too, I hear.

We started with the fried green tomatoes -- and I can confidently say they were the best I've ever had. Perfectly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and served over the most delicious, creamy grits that I'm still thinking about. That combination alone is worth the visit. For my entrée, I went with the fried chicken, paired with mac and cheese and bacon green beans. The chicken was golden, crispy, and juicy with so much flavor in every bite. The mac and cheese was rich and comforting, and the bacon green beans added the perfect savory balance to the plate. Everything felt thoughtfully prepared and full of that true Southern flavor you hope for when dining in Asheville. Generous portions, bold flavors, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I would absolutely come back again -- and honestly, I'm already looking forward to ordering those fried green tomatoes again.

Puppy-Approved Pit Stop…read more A quick trip to the Asheville area to grab some equipment turned into a brunch stop on the way home! With our pup in tow, we needed somewhere dog-friendly with outdoor seating -- and this place delivered. It was raining when we pulled up, but the patio was well-covered with plenty of seating. Staff even moved our table to keep us clear of the weather and made sure our seats were fully dried off before we sat down -- small touch, big impression. Our hostess greeted us with menus -- including a menu for the pup! Absolutely adorable, and such a nice touch that they cater to the four-legged family members too. Our waitress was just as sweet, friendly and on top of everything throughout the meal. We kicked things off with a "Make It Spicy" Mary and an IPA. Fried green tomatoes are a must-order for me wherever I go, and this version -- panko-crusted, served over creamy stone-ground goat cheese grits with red pepper coulis and fresh basil -- lived up to every word of that description. Crispy, creamy, with a nice pop of flavor: proper Southern cooking. For mains, I went with the sweet & spicy fried chicken & waffles -- hand-breaded crispy tenders drizzled with sriracha honey over golden buttermilk waffles -- and it did not disappoint. Sweet, savory, perfectly crisp, with waffles that were light and fluffy with a gorgeous golden crust. I cleared my plate. My partner, on the other hand, wasn't a fan of his bourbon peppercorn glazed meatloaf (a scratch-made beef and chorizo blend) -- so much so that he left most of it and said flatly, "It's gross, I'd never order that again." The mashed potatoes, at least, were a hit. A little bittersweet for me, since I loved everything on my plate and wished he'd had the same experience. So we'd come back, he'd just order something else next time!

My favorite parts are the aisle full of alllllll the sauces, and the wide selection of drinks ranging from canned boba to bottles of ramune soda. I was happy to finally find some hot sesame oil here in Asheville. The only downside is that it doesn't have the large selection of fresh meat and produce like other large Asian supermarkets I am used to back in larger cities. I'll definitely be back when I need some more Asian food items.

The stores isn't large, but it's pretty well stocked. I have been to the larger Asian market, YZ, and I think Lee's Asian Market has a smaller overall stock of things, but what it does have, you'll get several brands. For example, I needed Pandan extract. At YZ, I could only find the McKormick's Buco Pandan flavoring. At Lee's there were 3 brands of Pandan flavoring, including the Pandan flavored paste I was looking for, which is also sold by Amazon for about $6, at Lee's it was only $1.50 or so. The owner, a nice Chinese woman speaks English pretty well and is very friendly. That's somewhat rare in Asian markets. She walked me over to the steamer area and gave me some advice on using the bamboo cone, which is what I ended up buying. She also helped me find the frozen Pandan leafs. She is super sweet and nice, which I appreciated. I also found some fresh sticky rice and sweet banana cakes near the register. They had two square Banh Tet (Vietnamese new year cakes with mung bean and pork) as well. I haven't seen fresh cakes like that at the other Asian stores, so Lee's gets bonus points for this!
