Right after Pearlman's there is a large parking lot and a three story red brick building with two signs painted on it. One says "Waechter's Silk Shop" and the other says "City Bakery". That's our parking lot and our front door has a sign hanging over it. You can't miss us!

Our neighbor is City Bakery, a very European bakery with wonderful, crusty breads, great scones and fabulous sandwiches! Asheville is in the Western mountains of North Carolina where it stays cool and green in the summer. We have a town filled with art and craft galleries, wonderful restaurants and quaint bed and breakfasts. Right up the road is the historic Grove Park Inn and Spa. Asheville is also the home of Biltmore Estate, the family home of George Vanderbilt. Built in 1896, the 250 room mansion is filled with art from around the world. The gardens are incredible and the winery is excellent. Asheville has over 85 galleries, an incredible art museum, a world class mineral museum and more wonderful, interesting and unusual restaurants than you could sample in a year! Come visit us! We're worth the trip!
