Asheville awarded Traveler's Choice Top 10 Best Food and Wine Destinations

How does a small town tucked away on a plateau in the mountains compete with mega cities like New York, San Francisco and New Orleans? "The old-fashioned way - they earned it"...of course. Those of us who had the good fortune to grow up in Asheville NC are never surprised when the rest of the world discovers another of its assets. Asheville has more talent and creativity per capita than anywhere else on the planet and it's creation of a Foodtopian Society has proved to be another notable outlet for that talent.
