Frommer's Review
If Gaudí, the brilliant architect of late-19th-century Barcelona, could have designed a modern-day cafe, it might look a lot like this earth-toned hideaway in downtown Asheville, all curved walls and sinuous lines. Formerly Café Soleil, Established by a team of French and Argentine expatriates, Bouchon has positioned itself as the gathering place for members of Asheville's foreign (mostly European) community, as such evoking some aspects of a busy, arts-conscious cafe in, say, Paris or Madrid. The cafe has a list of good wines, many sold by the glass; an impressive roster of both salted and sweet crepes made with buckwheat flour in the French tradition and stuffed with your choice of dozens of different fillings; and quiches and salads. Main courses include French mussels steamed in white wine, shallots, garlic, tomato, and thyme, and other French specialties, like delicious pomme frites.
