Over Yonder

Over Yonder is a restaurant in Valle Crucis near Boone.  “Over Yonder” is designed, owned and managed by the Mast Farm Inn.   Over Yonder is located in a 1861 farmhouse.   It was opened in June 2014.  Chef Andy Long says their mission is to interpret classic Appalachian food in a modern yet casual way.  Everything is scratch prepared.  We had a most delicious Five Star meal.

On our way, we crossed a little bridge and this is a little part of the Watauga River.  It looked so beautiful I wanted to share it.

A lot of sitting on the porch that wraps around one whole side.  Many guests were enjoying outdoor dining.

In the distance you can see they also have a little market where they sell some of their wares.
