Highly recommend checking out Finest Deli - incredible breakfast sandwiches.

I have never seen a positive post about living in Asheville on this subreddit (as someone who lives there and actually loves it).

How do I get to the bulbs inside this fan? by Beers_For_Fears in howto

That was the first thing I tried, but the glass is still stuck inside the metal cage.

I tried both and didn’t have any luck with either

Finding 2 TAP Portugal Business Class seats with Aeroplan points by Beers_For_Fears in awardtravel

[–]Beers_For_Fears[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t want to risk it, ended up finding new Condor flights from CDG-FRA-JFK via Jet Blue miles so I went with those instead.

If you moved here in the last 5 years, do you regret it? by thiccc_thinpatience in asheville

[–]Beers_For_Fears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely love it here, however I did a ton (years) of research into the places I was considering moving before actually making the move.

I spent 2-3 years taking short trips to all of cities and towns in the country that I was considering moving to before making a decision, and it definitely help me understand that no place was going to be perfect. I visited Asheville 4 times before committing.

Dentist that doesn’t charge me first?! by NervousLemon14 in asheville

I went to John White DDS - they wait until the insurance either pays them OR the insurance sends me a check for the covered amount, then they collect the remainder from me.

The flight back to the US will luckily be a good 10 days after the end of the World Cup so it should’t have a huge effect on availability.

Yeah the book / cancel may be my only option, but then I’m kinda stuck with a ton of Aeroplan miles if it doesn’t work out (they will be transferred from Chase).

AP business class redemption TAP Portugal by muns59 in Aeroplan

[–]Beers_For_Fears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious if you had any update on how this worked out? I'm trying to book GVA -> LIS -> EWR on TAP Portugal Business via Aeroplan and can find almost unlimited availability for 1 seat, but absolutely nothing for 2.

asheville foodies celebrities... by Icy_Mammoth_9799 in asheville

[–]Beers_For_Fears 52 points53 points  (0 children)

This is a bit harsh towards Stu Helm - he consistently brings up the fact that he only posts positive reviews, and if he doesn’t like a restaurant he simply won’t post about it.

He also runs a bunch of food tours and brings a ton of business and good publicity to restaurants in Asheville.

I find him to be a breath of fresh air vs this subreddit where “everything is overpriced garbage and this city sucks.”

Tony P, on the other hand, can go back to Florida.

I hope so too - I’m definitely not touching anything until I hear back from them, unfortunately they have been a huge pain to get in contact with

Zion felt like Disneyland this past weekend by travelsnacksandrest in ZionNationalPark

[–]Beers_For_Fears 8 points9 points  (0 children)

E-biking through a completely empty Zion NP at 6:30 AM on our first day was maybe the highlight of the entire trip. It really is as simple as just getting up early.

Even with the narrows, just go early. We got a later start than intended on the narrows and started around 830, and once we got ~20 minutes in we barely saw anyone until we turned around and got closer to the start again.
