There is certainly no shortage of restaurants offering a variety of cuisine near Celebrate Blue Ridge cabins like Viewtopia, but if you’re craving a home cooked meal these cabins have you covered! You can whip up just about anything in these fully functional kitchens which are equipped with pots, pans, utensils, cooking oil, and a vast array of spices.
As Southern natives, an escape from the bustle of Atlanta into the bucolic rolling hills of Blue Ridge stirs up a craving for some good, old-fashioned southern food. We decided on an old favorite: Shrimp n’ Grits. Today it seems that everyone has a take on Shrimp n’ Grits, from The New York Times to Food Network. Use this recipe as a guide or add your own twist, like we did, by swapping the bacon for some spicy chorizo.
In Ellijay, just a short drive from Viewtopia, you will find an Ingles stocked with all the essentials and an expansive beer and wine selection, complete with a walk-in beer cooler. After a walk around the shops of Historic Downtown Ellijay, we headed to the Ingles to pick up our ingredients.
Once back at Viewtopia, turn on some tunes using the surround sound Bluetooth speakers, pour a glass of wine, and get cooking! If you like, enjoy your home-cooking outside on the porch while watching the sunset over incredible mountain views.
You will find fully stocked kitchens at all Celebrate Blue Ridge cabins, including thoughtful touches like olive oil and spices.
Book your getaway today and see for yourself – everything tastes better in the mountains!
