Hole Doughnuts, Asheville

Hole Doughnuts, Asheville

When visitors come from out of town, we ALWAYS take them to Hole Doughnuts. They create beautiful hand-made doughnuts that are imperfect, delicious works of art. Every time I go, I spend a lot of time photographing the whole scene, but until now I’ve resisted compiling an ultimate post on the experience. But when Hole took the No. 2 spot on Yelp’s Top 100 US Donut Shops list for 2023, I realized I had to take the time to put my photos in one place.

Why go?

  • Because you’ve have never had a doughnut as strange and as gorgeous as what’s about to hit your face…

Andaaz in Asheville

Our friend Erin is in town, so we went to dinner last night with her and her mom. It was a sumptuous dinner with plenty of appetizers and dishes to choose from. Loved it all and will be back.

Only one of our party had been here before. Andaaz opened in 2021, but we haven’t been. The location the spot formerly known as Rezaz’s, which was a favorite mediterranean eatery of ours for years since coming to the Big Town.
