What a night.
A huge thank you to Chef Richard Blais for joining us at The Market Place Restaurant for a special evening in Asheville this week while you were in town for the Biltmore Championship Asheville Pro Am Tournament.
Richard brought his energy, creativity, and unmistakable style to the kitchen, and it was a pleasure cooking alongside him. From Tuna Tartare Tostadas and Corn Fritters to our California-meets-English take on Fish & Chips, the menu was a lot of fun — and the room was full of energy.
Most of all, thank you to everyone who came out and shared the evening with us.
Richard, come back to Asheville anytime. The door to our kitchen is always open.

We are OPEN tonight for dinner The Market Place Restaurant and we hope you’re hungry!

Tomato Season is in full swing and so is our Heirloom Tomato Salad. We take the best tomatoes from Gaining Ground Farm and Leesfarm Lee and pair them with aged sherry vinegar, evoo, charred shallots and fresh basil, and add creamy burrata from Siano Mozzarella for a delicious peak tomato season dish.

Reservations recommended and walk ins welcomed.

We look forward to seeing you soon The Market Place Restaurant
