North Carolina Scratch Country Kitchen Afternoon Tea
October 19 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Who says you can’t go back in time? During a two-week road trip last year, Paul and I had the delightful opportunity to explore North Carolina. The state is dotted with charming general stores and old-fashioned country stores offering delicious fare, that includes hearty sandwiches, local delicacies, and wonderfully tasty baked goods reminiscent of Grandma’s home cooking! Inspired by these nostalgic general stores, we’ve prepared a delightful menu for you. All that’s left to complete this North Carolina Scratch Country Kitchen Afternoon Tea experience is a cozy rocking chair next to a crackling wood stove. Take a moment to relax and enjoy the ambiance.
