The 18 Best Restaurants in Asheville, North Carolina | Eater Carolinas
"Dip down a West Asheville side street and enter through the back door to discover the warm and utterly unique dining experience that chef-owner Silver Iocovozzi brings to life in a colorful, 17-seat space at Neng Jr.’s. Drawing inspiration from his Filipino roots, the chef delivers a rotating parade of vibrant offerings such as adobo oyster accented with cured quail egg yolk and the subtle, saline pop of sea grapes, crab fried rice, sinigang (sour broth) smoked wings, and a sculpted longanisa sausage pithivier. The cheese ice cream is a dessert favorite. The friendly staff carefully explain each dish to guests, so there’s no need to Google unfamiliar items." - Gina Smith
