RendezVous
What you need to know
RendezVous is a French bistro in East Asheville on New Haw Creek Road, run by Michel Baudouin, who spent 20 years running Bouchon downtown. He grew up on a farm near France's Rhône Valley, and the menu is French comfort food made with local ingredients from places like Sunburst Trout Farms and City Bakery. Look for moules frites with four mussel preparations, escargots, raclette fondue, house pâtés and frites with herbes de Provence. It's in a converted church with a barn for outdoor dining, pétanque courts and a long list of French wines. Dinner runs nightly from 4:30.
Local's Tip
Go on a Tuesday or Wednesday, when the moules frites are all you can eat. Thursday is the only night for steak tartare and veal sweetbreads.
What the locals say
Neighbors like skipping the downtown parking hunt, and regulars linger for a game of pétanque after dinner.
