Just down the road from Tom's Stand in Maggie Valley - Joey's is truly a local treasure. In business since the 60s, it's a must stop for breakfast. You can't go wrong with the pecan pancakes with bacon and cheese grits. Open 7 days a week from 7 to Noon. There's often a line, so the earlier the better!

In the Asheville River Arts District, this is one of our favorite BBQ places. It's famous for their Blueberry Chipotle ribs, but there are simply no bad choices on the menu. They have odd hours, but it's worth the trouble (11:30 to 6:30, closed weekends). Try their Arden, NC location for Saturday hours. You'll want to leave early, and plan to stay late, as the River Arts District is a one of a kind destination for handmade arts & crafts.

The Great Smoky Mountain Railroad offers scenic train rides through the Western North Carolina mountains along the Nantahala and Tuckasegee Rivers. All of the trips leave from the Bryson City, NC train depot. My favorite is the Tuckasegee River Excursion where you have a lay over in Dillsboro, a charming with an impressive collection of galleries.
