651117 Wed Sep 09 07:49:15 -0700 2009 4 11 South 0 5015991 We're headed to Asheville on Friday for a birthday weekend -- any suggestions on a restaurant for Friday where the dog (welsh corgi) can sit outside with us? Have been on petfriendlyasheville.com and noticed that several restaurants allow dogs but "leashed outside rail" -- our little guy would hate that; he's very good at restaurants and doesn't get in the way.... Also, we've got a gift certificate to Zambra's for Saturday night - anything to particularly get or skip? Many thanks for input.

I think the menu changes pretty requently, so it may be hard to mkae reccomendations, unless someone has been there very recently.

My dog likes Sunny Point and Modesto (modesto will almost certainly have some really good stuff and some really odd stuff) Zambra - if you see fried calamari w/ a green sauce, it's good. Order the bread ($3.) Get a wine from the Jumilla region. Scallops and shrimp usually good. Quail often good. I skip the desserts.
