#trendinginAVL: WNC Caterers to die for

Asheville is a fun place to eat. Downtown, around town and all over west AVL. No where is there a shortage of great restaurants with yummy food; local food; vegan food; probiotically prepared vegetarian deliciousness with kale and truffle oil aioli; kimchi hot sauce; fried chicken and cheese grits and fried green tomatoes. If you like to eat, Asheville can feel like food heaven.  In addition to great restaurants, there are also a ton of amazing caterers.  Here are a few faves.

Corner Kitchen  is an Asheville staple. Not surprising since they have an amazingly delicious retail restaurant. As an event caterer, they specialize in upscale southern comfort food. They have full service offerings and a knowledgeable and available staff. Their food is delicious and working with them is a dream. They also run an equally amazing downtown spot, Chestnut.

Travinia Italian Kitchen  is located in Biltmore Park. They are the best option if you are looking for a Tuscan experience. They have an on-site room for private events and do amazing spreads for off-site catering. In addition to special events they are also a great corporate catering option. (And they make a great martini)!

Dining Innovations is the go-to for classic catering. Nestled in DoubleTree by Hilton Asheville-Biltmore, the DI team is equipped to handle your larger catering requests. They have the staff, menu options and experience to ensure your party is well cared for.

Saffron Fine Foods  knows the business of food. Their retail restaurant, Homegrown makes the best fried chicken this side of the Mississippi, and upscale is no problem for them either. Locally owned and operated, this group also certifies a living wage for their employees. Also an eco-friendly establishment, it is no wonder they are an AVL favorite.

Not to be outdone, The Colorful Palate  will blow your mind with creative, local fare. Ragan and Tara's love of menu planning and culinary expertise shines throughout the company. Their attention to detail and creativity are the perfect combination for amazing event catering.

Definitely not an all inclusive list, this smattering of delicious options will help any destination couple get started on their catering options.
