Finally, we met a happy sunny day! It's been rainy on and off for the last two weeks. Fortunately, we visited Biltmore Estate, the largest American home with a beautiful weather. We hit the road at 7 a.m. and surprisingly there were not late comers. Incheon National University students delegation is very punctual and this made our trip begin an finish in a timely manner.
The Biltmore Estate has its own winery and we had a chance to taste Biltmore's signature wines from White, Rose to Red. Mr. Matthew who helped us for wine tasting was served as a navy in Korea for a half year back in 1990, so we had a great conversation with him. He told us that he misses Kimchi, which is Korean fermented spicy cabbage. We had a lot of fun at the winery.
#Beacoon: Real Southern Food Experience
After visiting Biltmore and the Gaffney Outlet Mall, we had dinner at Beacon which serves Southern style burgers, fries and onion rings. We were surprised by the way they get order by yelling to Chefs in the kitchen, get drinks and paid in a row. Furthermore, we don't eat that big portion of food but they served us a burger and fries in which I think three of us can eat together! By the way, Mr. Constant ate up his plates and needed some more. Hahaha Look at his funny face!
Afterwards, we headed home safely and while returning home, we observed beautiful sunset on the sky.
Biltmore Estate looks very beautiful. You are lucky to experience nice weather that day, when we arrived to a place, it was raining all day long, the only one thing that made my day was tasting Biltmore's signature wines.
Southern food are the best! My all time favorites are grits, country ham, hushpuppies, beignets and more! I wish I will also be able to visit in that place with my friends and families. It has been a while since we had our last vacation together and I think it's about time to have a little break and enjoy ourselves as a family. Maybe I will try to look for a place that has unique food, my family enjoys eating a lot.
