Why Asheville groups book a chef
Asheville has become a favorite for bachelorette weekends, girls' trips and mountain weddings, and most groups stay in cabins and large rentals outside town, from the Blue Ridge Parkway to Black Mountain and Weaverville. After a brewery or winery tour, mountain roads at night are the last thing anyone wants. A private chef in Asheville brings dinner to the cabin.
What we'd cook in Asheville
Asheville loves seasonal, farm-driven food, and so do we: a fig and greens salad, trout, braised greens, smoked short rib, roasted root vegetables, and bourbon pecan bread pudding by the fire. Brunch matters here, too, with biscuits, grits, egg dishes and a mimosa setup.
A weekend plan
- Friday: a family-style dinner at the cabin as everyone arrives.
- Saturday: brunch before a brewery or winery tour, then a plated dinner with the mountains as a backdrop.
- Sunday: a slow brunch before the drive home.

- Many cabins sit at the top of steep gravel drives, so please send directions and parking notes early.
