Interior of Tupelo Honey Cafe It has been one week since enjoying breakfast at the Tupelo Honey Cafe in Asheville, NC. I am still finding my mind wandering back to all the delicious plates we sampled. We had the pleasure of dining with Executive Chef Brian Sonoskus. He introduced each plate that was brought before …
