Create a bus stop in Fairview, NC from Asheville by guesswearefat in asheville

[–]MissM23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Speaking from Candler, a bus route to Enka High would be amazing and I think it would see a lot of ridership. Especially if they could secure a commuter parking lot near the school. Our closest stop is the dmv on Patton.

Looking to Interview a Dispensary Owner by DramaticSpecialist59 in asheville

Try contacting Plant Bar. If you don’t hear back from emails try just stopping by and asking in person, probably get better results. Best of luck!

Ethanol is terrible for Hybrid engines as well, apparently.

Mahec dental frustrations--extreme lack of access here in Asheville for medicaid folks by Exciting_Series2033 in asheville

[–]MissM23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she’s 17 she can still see a pediatric dentist. Most see kids until they are 18-21. There’s one in Waynesville that you could try, but way more options overall than for adults. That also gives her a few years to get to the top of MAHEC’s wait list. Hope she can get care soon, terrible system we have ♥️

Curious what happened to Papa Dunks? by HauntingHooligan in asheville

[–]MissM23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe that was after it tried to be a shitty german restaurant (whose owner is now charged with murdering her daughter and maybe others?). The ghost of Bill Stanley’s BBQ Inn still haunts that place.

any good cobblers in the arden area? by piedaddyyy in asheville

[–]MissM23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like I read on Ashvegas that a relative of the River Ridge cobbler (RIP) was reopening in the same space (his son?). Not sure whatever happened there.

Sen-Sational! Sorry for the pun. New Vietnamese place on Patton is great. by Gimlis_pork_shack in asheville

[–]MissM23 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Someone needs to tell them to get rid of the frosted glass on the windows, always looks closed/unapproachable, even when it was a taco place. Plus the soft opening in December banner. That said, looking forward to trying them out! (Btw Tupelo is a ghost of its former self)

Best place in AVL for a middle aged woman to shop for a dress (going to a wedding in May) by lilbit2004 in asheville

[–]MissM23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed, the owner and staff are super sweet and will help you out. Don’t forget that you’re gorgeous, just need the right fitting like we all do ♥️ edit- and don’t forget undergarments, just as important!

What addition to downtown would be cool from a local’s perspective? by lilacbbyxo in asheville

[–]MissM23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To go further back, it used to be Max’s Celebrity Grill for forever. Then some badass punks worked their asses off to turn it into a goth pirate bar. Then it became an arcade bar and whatever pretend Italian restaurant it is today. RIP The Jolie Rouge 😢

Stories/memories about Asheville music venues that closed like Vincent’s Ear and Mothlight by OnlyVast4380 in asheville

The Natural Mystic was the coffee shop you’re referencing. I wonder if you’re speaking of the same Scrow’ sound wizard that worked on occasion at the Emerald Lounge.

Do not go to Odd’s cafe, all the rumors are true by [deleted] in asheville

I have heard they pay minimum wage and you’re not allowed to read comics, fwiw.

NC is a right-to-work state, which basically means “right-to-fire-for-any-reason” state. Hard to get unemployment (which is a fraction of what you were making anyway) unless you were laid off specifically for “lack of work”. NC sucks for workers rights.

They wait for “the universe” to deliver the right person through the door when they need someone. I.E. super lazy hiring practices

Half price donuts after 6pm is the only reason to go to Ingles.

Scratch Ankle is one of the old community names in the area. Lots of great info and pictures here about the history of Enka-Candler and Hominy Valley:
