However, despite of the good salad bar, the hot foods portion of the deli was not good at all. I understand that it is difficult to maintain freshness, but most of the food was dried out and somewhat unrecognizable. I opted for the least dry-looking items; chicken tenders, potato wedges and okra. The first two items were very dry, and the okra was very greasy. Well, at least the bakery cake slices were delicious!

This cute little place on the main street of the small town of Valdese, NC, exceeded our…read moreexpectations. After a morning of hiking, we headed here for some beer and lunch. The place was spotlessly clean. The bartender and server were both super nice. This is not a brewery, but they have a solid selection of beers on draft, mostly from breweries in Western North Carolina. We had a great flight of porters and stouts for a little over half what we typically pay for a flight in Asheville. All of the beers were really good. We had heard that this place is known for its flatbreads and we love a good flatbread. The one we had here was more than good: it was excellent. The bread dough makes a huge difference in a flatbread. Theirs was sturdy enough to hold all the toppings and not let them soak in too much, and it had a nice crispiness to it. The toppings included goat cheese, basil, onions, banana peppers and a great balsamic vinegar. Instead of ordering two flatbreads to share, we ordered a side of their parmesan truffle potato wedges. I was a little skeptical because in the past when I've had fries with truffle oil, there was too much of it and the taste was overwhelming. Here they found the magic amount. You get the umami taste but it adds to the potato and parmesan flavors instead of covering them up. The wedges were crispy and browned on the outside, but still nice and soft inside. So my recommendation is this: go on a nice hike at Valdese Lakeside Park or visit the neighboring historic mill and waterfalls. Then come here for lunch!
