We had hoped to find Fry Bread for breakfast in Cherokee, NC. But the restaurant that had breakfast didn't do Fry Bread till lunch. So we did some shopping this drizzly morning at souvenir stores and farmer kiosks, scoring some local apples and local honey to have with our fry bread, as Paul's only provided Smucker's.
They had some charming products here. Toe jam (Tangerine, Orange, Elderberry) and Frog jam (Figs, Raspberries, Oranges and Ginger) and rat cheese (actually what they use to trap rats, but a good aged sharp cheddar)
So back to Paul's Family Restaurant in Cherokee at 11:30 for brunch. Here Karen brandishes frog legs. They taste like fish. I had the Indian Taco, again.
We sat on the porch to enjoy the gentle rain, before getting in the car on twisty mountain roads to be annoyed by it. Hot coffee and crispy fry bread with local honey are good mood modifiers.
