If you think you can get something similar at a Mexican restaurant or by buying a grocery store rotisserie chicken with chipotle seasoning, you are so wrong. This is truly a thing unto itself, and it is delicious. I've had it pulled off the bone and served with rice and vegetables at other Peruvian restaurants outside of Asheville, but to have it mostly on its own, with sauces, a side of fries, salad, tortillas or rice, really enables you to appreciate the chicken for its amazing self. It's marinated overnight and during the rotisserie process, too, so it's not just the crispy, slightly charred skin that tastes of the spices and chiles, it's also the juicy, tender meat inside. It has a nice smoky flavor as well. Not hot spicy (unless you dip it in the red sauce from here, which is fire!). They also provided a creamy avocado sauce, which is great mixed with the red sauce to lower the heat just a little and give it some contrast. The fries are also great dipped into these sauces. The whole chicken with 3 sides was enough to feed three of us (all pretty big eaters) with some leftovers. The service was warm and friendly. There are 3 outdoor picnic tables by the side of the truck, but this is a place to get wonderful food to go that you can't get anywhere else in Asheville. So it enjoy at home or on a picnic someplace in the woods or a park. They also have dishes that are more traditionally Mexican (tacos, stuffed tortillas) and weirdly, also bratwurst. I'm not sure how this got in the mix, but they are from South America and a lot of Germans did immigrate there. We'll definitely be back. The problem will be convincing ourselves to try anything else when the Peruvian chicken is just so dang good.

Seriously obsessed with this place. Try the chicken, the tacos, or get a papusa! The have a bell…read morefor when your food is ready.

The folks working on the truck, including Mandy, were beyond kind and sweet. That alone makes me want to come back to try the rest of the food! The gochujang broccoli is... the best thing ever. It's really a unique dish and also so smart because broccoli is so good and that combo just makes sense, it's crispy and saucy and lightly spicy and delicious. I shared the first order and had to get a second that I did NOT share. The furikake fries are also really unique and delicious, they are served with a really good sauce that tastes mayo based. If you're a vegan or not a vegan, come try Mean Mandy's! It's really great food served by awesome people. Also how can your resist visiting a food truck that has such a unique name :) Thanks Mandy & team

So, we jumped back in the car and drove 45 minutes back to Asheville and went to The Bear's Smokehouse BBQ. It's not that we settled for The Bear, it's just exactly what we wanted for dinner tonight. We pretty much had no wait (it was 5 times the size of Waynesville) and we got BBQ: Ribs Brisket Chicken Wings Coleslaw Potato Salad Baked Beans Six kinds of BBQ sauce Beers And a ton of napkins Every thing was very good and the price for this extravaganza was not bank busting. We had a blast eating, drinking and watching the "Going On's" for a Saturday night in Asheville, North Carolina. We all enjoyed this evening!

The tortillas were a little brittle and fell apart by the time I got home but that is the pitfall of corn tortillas. Each taco was very flavorful and the spicy pork had the perfect kick for me. What really stole the show and my original intention for visiting was the kimchi! I heard that they store the kimchi underground so I definitely had to try it. It's lightly fermented and has a lot of umami but it tasted very similar to kimchi served in Korean restaurants. If you're trying to see where they are, check out their Facebook page!

We were out in Asheville, randomly started craving Mexican food, and decided to give La Rumba a try. I'm SO glad we did because everything was genuinely incredible. The food was absolutely sensational. Everything we ordered was packed with flavor, fresh, and just ridiculously good. We kept trying each other's food and basically saying "oh my god" after every bite. Even the chips, salsa, queso, and guac had us hooked before our actual food came out. And the drinks!!! SO good. Dangerous in the best possible way. What really took the experience over the top though, was the service. Everyone was incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming, and you could tell they cared that we were having a great experience. Great food is one thing, but when the service matches it, that's what makes a restaurant memorable. We went in on a whim with zero expectations and left talking about how we HAVE to come back the next time we're in Asheville. Honestly, La Rumba may have ruined our ability to casually pick another Mexican restaurant now 10/10. No notes. Go hungry. Order everything.
