Had no idea there was a retail location! Of course I stopped in, and it was such a fun shopping experience. All the best high quality blends you expect, and tons of other Indian themed goodies like snacks, hot sauces, cookbooks, and condiments! Purchased a handful and can't wait to experiment and play with them when I get home in a few days. Super clean. Great vibe and decor with beautiful colors and bright vibrancy. Hope to make it back to Asheville to eat at his restaurants soon!

Each spice packed gives you easy recipes and suggestions on what to add. Quite often I'll use half of the spices with the suggested chicken, beef, etc, and the other half I will make vegetarian/vegan friendly and add vegetables, potatoes, or some sort of vegetarian meat alternative for added protein. There is enough food in one packet for my partner to have a meal and leftovers for lunch the next day with the meat curry. And the same for me with the veggie curry. They also make great gifts for friends and family around the holidays since they are gluten free, all natural spices, without any preservatives. And recipes can easily be made vegan too.

*POST HOLIDAY UPDATE*…read more Karen has added a few new spice packets and one is the ultimate local recipe, Asheville Brew Stew! What could be better for local residents? Here are the ingredients to spice a warm winter beef or lamb stew. You'll need to add your favorite local beer and get on over to The New York Butcher Shoppe in Arden for your favorite cut of local beef. If you ask politely they are happy to chunk it up for you so all you have to do is add ingredients to it. It's perfect for these cold winter days that are upon us right now. Let's really support all local businesses and get on this. Karen also has a wonderful Hungarian spice packet for fish if you're feeling the need for lighter fare. I cannot recommend this highly enough. I'm a huge fan. And if you're out of town, Karen's business is online and she ships. They made wonderful stocking stuffers this year for me to give to all my friends. Good luck on making that beef stew although you won't need luck, Karen makes it easy to make perfectly seasoned dishes for every home cook. Cheers to a better, healthier 2021!

Local here! This is our go to spot for fresh local meat. We always get our chicken, beef, eggs and…read morefish here. The quality of the beef is superb since they own the farm (Apple Brandy Beef) which their beef comes from. On top of that, the staff are always friendly and the type of folks you get to know on a first name basis. And the space is always very clean and fresh smelling. If you grab a ribeye, don't forget a jar of their Apple Brandy Beef steak rub. Pro tip: Get a pound of their beef bacon which is thinly sliced brisket which cooks up just like bacon and is seasoned with a nice black pepper rub. Sear it on med-high in a cast iron for a nice pairing with the local Dry Ridge Farm eggs (you've never had eggs till you have those).
