Nadia writes it after the morning delivery and we post it that night. Nobody here knows what the fourth course is on a Monday.

The six weeks behind it.

Published because “our menu changes constantly” is a thing every restaurant says and almost none of them can show.

Two seatings

  • 6:00

    Out by about 8:15. The one to take if you have something after.

  • 8:30

    The longer one. Nobody is asked to leave.

Thirty-two seats at eleven tables, on Haywood Road. The room is one room; there is no private corner and no bad table, which is one of the few advantages of being small.

Bookings open four weeks out.

Most people book the date and take the menu as it comes, since the week’s menu is not written when the date opens. Ring (828) 555-0113 after four o’clock, or send the form.
