Ok here is a question to anyone who lives and/or visits the Hayesville, Franklin, Murphy North Carolina area; where do you find your most favorite eats? We are going to be spending an entire week at a cabin in Hayesville in late Sept and while there will be doing a lot of driving around so I'm wanting to know what and where did you find some good remarkable eats. We will be traveling out on day trips as far as Gatlinburg TN, Maggie Valley & Ashville NC, and south into Blairsville GA so be sure to give me some wide ranging prospects.

Good place for home cooking. I don't think there is much drinking there, though. We always eat there when in that area of NC.

While your visiting Wheels Through Time Motorcycle Museum in Maggie Valley, go down the road just a little & stop @ Butts on The Creek. Good BBQ last time we were there. If you like barbeque you can't really go wrong just about anywhere there. IMHO.

I can't remember the name of the place in Maggie Valley but it's on the S side of the road on the main drag. It's so close to the street you can barely park a bike between the building and the sidewalk. Fried grouper fingers are fantastic along with very cold bier.

Cook's Kitchen Restaurant Blairsville - Nice, honest people. Good southern style breakfast. Right beside the bridge over Hyw 515 (the only one in town, btw).
The Dillard House, Dillard, GA on Hwy 441. Family style, southern cooking. Go hungry, it's all you can eat.
The Smith House in Dahlonega GA. Similar to The Dillard House.

Iff'n yer gonna do the Cherohala Skyway, do Krambonz BBQ at the end of it in Telico Plains, TN. It's in the same parking lot as the Save a Lot supermarket. This place has become legendary in the motorcycling world.

12 bones in Asheville is amazing. If you can get in there. http://www.12bones.com/ (http://www.12bones.com/)
Let me know when you are around Aville, maybe I can show you a place or two.

I remembered the name of the joint with the grouper fingers. The Salty Dog.

Really old looking wooden joint with a big screened in place to eat in the back?
-
Hmm...never been in back. Always parked in front, sat in front. Verticle white stripes on front, IIRC.
Another neat place is the Bobarosa (like Ponderosa) on the French Broad river. "Biker" oriented but cold beer and tbles along the river with table service.

Yeah I don't really remember the name of the place but Salty Dog seemed to fit its theme. Place I'm thinking of was south off of Soco Road into Waynesville perhaps on 276 or 74 they had a really good seafood menu and a very relaxed and rustic atmosphere.

In fact I was indeed planning on the Skyway for several reasons. With the number one being that it was by far my big brothers favorite road and while he has been gone from this world for a few years he was known as "grocro" on the old forums and could ride like he was outrunning stink.... I like your idea of Krambonz BBQ, thanks!

The Dog is right up the street from Wheels Through Time.

Yeah once I re-read your post I realized we where not even on the same road..... It's been since 09 that I was last there. I think that I recall the dog now that you mention WTT. Maybe the place I've got on my mind was called the Blue Crab or something like that?
I don't know for sure if we will visit WTT again but I know for sure that we will take a trip up Cove Creek Road to the Cataloochee Valley to visit with the wild elk herd again.

You'll like it even more when you're waddling out. This is the real deal. I like the brisket, but everything's excellent. And really nice folks that run it.
Bon apetit
PS. I do remember your brother.

If you go to Tellico Plains, stop in at the Tellico Grains Bakery. Great little family run place with good bread, good sandwiches, and incredible canoles. Very clean and the owners/employees treated us like family. And I believe it was on old bank when built in the early 1900s.

Have plans on stopping at KramBonz for a plate full of BBQ and then on to the bakery for a sack full of sweets to eat at the roadside parks when we drive the Skyway.... Should exit the Skyway just as stuffed as when we enter it!
Thanks....

And since you'll want to ride the skyway again hit the Telico Cafe second time around. Across the Skyway pass the gas station take a right, it's on your right.

RED with envy. I was there this spring & didn't want to leave.

vacation or permanent?

Vacation with a couple of my nephews & other good friends. 2nd trip to the area. WILL be coming back with the better half as soon as she can go.

This will be a week long vacation but the area is very high on the list for us to make a permanent home out of; so we will again be scouting real estate.... Will be sharing the cabin with a another couple that we like to hang with; I do all the planning and they never complain.

It would be very hard to complain with planning like that. Have a great time Tony, lord knows you deserve to enjoy your limited time off from work.

Planning on picking up some legal shine on the way down to the cabin and was thinking about doing some Bloody Shiners.....
Dang it all to hell.... Just realized there ain't no liquor sales on Sunday in TN... :hitfan:
-
Stock up on the way there! Another thing to remember; Other than purchasing distilled "beverages" at the distillery in Gatlinburg (mmmmm...... Lemon Drop), I'd buy alcohol somewhere else due to the tourist tax in town!

Oh we will most definitely be "fortified" with spirits from home as the wife likes Bells Oberon beer and wine from the Round Barn... I just thought it would a hoot to pick up some shine on our way to the cabin on Sunday as we will not be going back to G'Burg till later in the week on Thursday.
