Westgate Regional Shopping Center — Local services in Asheville

The Westgate regional shopping center, just west of the river from Asheville, is worth visiting just for the views.

It is one of the high spots in the whole Asheville area, and if you go to the far right corner behind the Earth Fare store, the land drops away (through fabulous vegetation) and gives you great views of the downtown and the sacred French Broad River.

Before the trees got their leaves, you could also see the train tracks and the newly developed Riverside Drive nightlife area with the fabulous Salvage Station music club (which has a huge outdoor area for lounging, eating, drinking and outdoor music shows - of which they boast maybe the best calendar in Asheville, or at least close to Asheville’s famous old club, the Orange Peel) and the wonderful White Duck Taco (with its terrific outdoor seating).

If you have a dog - or even a self with a body - to walk, I recommend making a loop around the whole strip mall. As with so many country strip malls, the area behind the store has some real wild country - including the typical batch...

That was for the Asian pavilion.a Chinese restaurant with the worse food I've been served sence.i.arrived in Asheville 5 yrs ago they do not change out the oil after lunch.and leave in the deep fryer to long that gives it a burned taste.and makes.it hard as a rock . it was so bad i left half my food on the plate i even.had to.ask for a knife. A first for me. Their is no Bar.or buffet and the public restrooms were a mess.it is mainly a take out joint that often take .50 minutes to a hour to arrive cold.i was one of 4 people in the restaurant and we all.told the owner we would never come back...the only good points were the service. And the white sticky rice...I would tell any hunting a good Chinese restaurant to go to.Red ginger down town .that is a 4 star for me.parking is a problem though.😎 everything else is great !!! And they do have...
