Shout out to for coming out on the coldest day of the year for an Eating Asheville food tour! Y’all were so much fun and we can’t wait to explore the mountains with you. We also had some very special guests, the real Santa and Mrs. Claus on a winter break all the way from the North Pole! (no joke). They must have brought that beautiful snow we’ve been waiting for. ❄️ Thanks to our restaurant partners for giving them a warm and delicious Asheville welcome! .chocolate

It’s always a memorable experience when the food tour stops at Mikasa Criolla in the Historic S&W Market! This food is as delicious as it is beautiful. Chef Santiago Vargas and Ana Austin bring the Fusion of Peru right to the heart of downtown Asheville with authentic fresh seasonal dishes like this carne empanada with pickled onion and cilantro sauce. They even have a vegan ceviche, the Mamapacha ceviche, with local, Andean and Peruvian ingredients. We also love the traditional chicken chili “Aji de Gallina”. These are homemade dishes with authentic Peruvian and Spanish flavors, including farm-to-table ingredients all the way from Peru! 🇵🇪
