I know how much everyone on this board, or at least those who go to Asheville, love Tupelo Honey Café. This board is the reason I went there for the first time, though I'd heard of it before. Well now it's my turn to repay the favor to the board (hopefully) by sharing this news:
Tupelo Honey Café is opening a location in Market Square in Knoxville!!! Additionally, for those who don't live in Knoxville but do travel through it on the way to Bonnaroo, the developer has said it will most likely be open by June!
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
I know I know. Everyone loves it. But after living there and seeing the block-long lines every morning... There are TONS of awesome places in Asheville that Rachel Ray hasn't eaten at.
And seriously, don't expect it to be as good as the original. They opened Tupelo South and it was a fraction of the quality and was only a few miles down the road.
Sorry, I don't mean to be a Debbie Downer. TH just strikes a nerve with me for some reason.

Abra and I love us some Tomato Head. We go to the one at Market Square, but they also have one in Maryville. We've never been there (Market Square is much closer), but all the reviews I have heard said it is not as good as the one at Market Square. I hope that's not how this turns out.

Because of Tupelo, I can officially say that I have had grits (not what I expected and not impressed). Side note: Within the next month or so, Cheesecake Factory will be adding grits to the menu- two kinds. A shrimp and grits and a ummm.. something.

You didn't like grits? This will negatively effect your application when you try to move to the South.
Druid, can you rip a part of the pass and pass it off to me? Share the wealth sista.
I have no urge to ever eat them again. I didn't hate them, but they certainly were nothing special. IFF I move anywhere (I don't particularly want to), Nashville would be high on my list Or maybe I could convince Holls that she wants a roommate and she can get me a job at her university! Perfect!

I feel you Bonzai, I don't like grits either and I was born in North Carolina.
In the interest of honesty, I like grits, but I've never in my life thought "Man, I want some grits right now." I think that about pancakes at least twice a week on the other hand. Also, I take tons of crap because I put butter and sugar in them since that's not the "Southern" way to eat them.

Grits are good, but shrimp grits are incredible. Even if you don't like grits, I'd recommend trying some quality shrimp grits at some point.
I hope that the new location is as good, although I could see it being a little worse. However, that's still a better option that driving to Asheville, so I'll take it. Market Square really does have a lot of great food.
Tupelo Honey was very good, but Over Easy Cafe blew us away on our trip to Asheville. I have been craving it ever since. We've actually talked about just going up to Asheville on a trip based around eating there.

Wait...it's NOT?!? That's how I eat 'em! And I put salt on my watermelon, too.
The best perk about having a THC in Knoxville is being within driving distance of their goods. I'm running low on their blackberry preserves & honey. Granted, I can get Tupelo Honey @ Fresh Market, but damn, those preserves are addicting! Oh, and now I'll have a great excuse to come up, kidnap Abra & Maynard, grab grub & a show. Win-win! ;D
PS - Bonz, c'mon down! I'll start looking for jobs for ya! Then you'll be that much closer to 'Roo & Hangout & Moog!
Rachel Ray is what led us to Tupelo Honey when we passed through Asheville. It was good. I am sure there are a lot more better places, but I did enjoy their grits. I am a fan of grits and Grits N egg's is my favorite meal. Sugar does not go in grits, they are not Oats! Shrimp N Gritz are good, but eggs, sunny side up or over easy with grits(salted) and a side of swine(bacon, ham, sausage), mixing those three ingredients is the best way. I eaten that for dinner many times.
