From Corner Kitchen To KERF Kitchen

Oh whatta day!

We’re back home. And home doesn’t feel like home because we might have to evacuate the premises in 30 days 🙁 [No news on our counter offer yet…]

After blogging we read a little on the porch and made our way to Biltmore Village for a little walking. We weren’t sure if we wanted to get on the road or eat an early lunch. Decided on lunch!

At the famous Corner Kitchen.

IMG_3940 (640x427) 

IMG_3939 (640x427)

We had to wait 30 minutes and killed the time walking around the village area.

Tired of smiling for photos:

IMG_3942 (640x427)

I really wanted the Lavender Chicken Salad but they were serving it on the brunch menu.

But something I might not have thought twice about caught my attention: Lox + Bagel. It came with homefries but I was able to sub in a really nice side salad. Perfect!

IMG_3944 (640x427)

That would be a wedge of cream cheese. I ate half the bagel and a few tsp of cream cheese and gave the other half to Matt.

The salmon was awesome!

IMG_3945 (640x427)

The bagel was huge and I think it was fried!?!? It tasted kind of like a funnel cake. In a good way!

IMG_3948 (640x427)

IMG_3943 (640x427)

Matt got Sesame Crusted Catfish over an Asian Salad. He raved about it!! I had a bite of the fish – it was perfectly crispy! All in all, we were really impressed by Corner Kitchen. I need to go back and try that lavender salad!!

IMG_3947 (640x427)

Take me homeeeeee, country roaddddsss

IMG_3952 (640x427)

I made a wager with Matt: If he drove the whole way home, I would do all the grocery shopping.  He agreed!! SCORE! I HATE DRIVING!

IMG_3955 (640x427)

Passing by Lake Lure – it was packed!

IMG_3959 (640x427)

Once we arrived home (2.20 later) I had a Voskos Honey Vanilla Bean with some Hemp Plus. Loved the flavor. Not too sweet! Always a plus for flavored yogurts for me.

IMG_3960 (640x427)

And I went on a grocery shopping trip to EarthFare and Harris Teeter. It was good. I like food!

While I was gone, Matt and his friend "Bun Bun" played. Since he sits at the kitchen table on his computer quite often, he’s noticed that Bun Bun lives in the yard and comes out to play frequently, nibbling on our garden. Matt caught him in action today!

IMG_3962 (640x427)

IMG_3963 (640x427)

IMG_3964 (640x427)

So cute!!

IMG_3968 (640x427)

I came home from Earthfare and opened up a treat I had in the fridge. Drank half. I love these things and I have no idea why.

IMG_3969 (640x427)

I got to work on the old lunchbox and on dinner as well.

Tonight’s dinner was AMAZING but I can’t share the recipe because it’s going in a COOKBOOK! A real, live cookbook. Goodbite, where I’ve done a few videos, got a book deal and invited me to participate 🙂

Behold: Good Bite’s Weeknight Meals: Delicious Made Easy is coming to shelves Fall 2011.

good-bite-color1

I’m really excited about this new fishy recipe!

IMG_4000 (640x427)

IMG_3992 (640x427)

On the side of the mysterious recipe, I sautéed some bitter mustard greens along with a squeeze of lemon and some Garlic Gold Parmesan nuggets.

IMG_3994 (640x427)

And Matt grilled and buttered some corn!

IMG_3996 (640x427)

IMG_3997 (640x427) 

Romantic end to a romantic weekend:

IMG_3986 (640x427)

Goodnight, sweetheart, goodnight.

    Glad you had a nice weekend in Aville. Too bad your dinner at Market Basket was sub-par. I’m from Asheville and have eaten at MB several times with the same disappointing experience it seems you had. Their menu looks so promising, but the result is just as you put it…lackluster.

    I’m sure it’s nice to be home in your own bed.

    You and Matt inspire me that real love is possible . You both are so sweet. I am sure as long as you two are together – you will always feel at home, no matter if its out in 30 days! 😉

    Looks like a fun day and I’m guessing dinner is some sort of crusted halibut maybe? Or some other fish.

    All of your restaurant-going in N. Carolina really makes me want to visit the state. My boyfriend went to Duke, and he speaks nothing but the highest praise about the Carolinas. I’m oh-so curious about these states!

    Kombucha is great! I’m totally obsessed and I buy it every time I visit Whole Foods. I love it because it settles my often-upset stomach. The blueberry ginger and raspberry are best.

    I stopped drinking Kombucha years ago after I realized I always felt, ahem, high or slightly buzzed after drinking it, and it became a bit of a habit. I drank a few a couple of months ago and it still has the same effect. I rarely drink, though, so I guess maybe it feels a bit exaggerated to me. It’s gotten so popular lately, I’m convince that I can’t be the only one who experiences that!

    Yum yum yum cream cheese and lox! I love smoked salmon. Seriously. It’s amazing. (I liked it the first time and last time I tried it, along with sashimi!) Corner Kitchen looks like a really nice restaurant!

    Bunny is SOOOOOOOO CUTE! Seriously. Ugh. Why are you so awesome? You even have a bunny in your backyard! XD

    Gaaah, that corn. I love burn flavor. Anything with black grill marks is a winner with me. I think I read somewhere that the blackness might have carcinogens in it, but that will not stop me.

    I have a pet rabbit! I love bunnies; they make the best little pets. I’ve had my guy for 8 years now, and it still amazes me sometimes how smart he is and how he’s actually bonded to me. They’re definately not like normal rodents!

    my husband is the opposite when it comes to driving – he is always monopolizing the wheel, even when we’re in traffic (which he hates and i always offer to take over)

    We had a bear walk in front of our home about two years ago. My Dad and Husband saw him and I am still a bit bitter that I didn’t get to see him! 🙂

    I use to drink Kombucha, there are a few companies locally that make it, but I always felt blah afterwards. I drank a few different brands including the one in your picture.
