The Applewood Farmhouse Restaurant
In Pigeon Forge, Tennessee which is a short drive from Knoxville, is a shopper’s oasis. There are outlet stores of every descriptions, stores featuring local artisans, the Christmas Place , and many, many more! When your bones are tired from shopping and your stomach is gnawing at your back, you will appreciate the welcoming atmosphere and awesome food of the Applewood Farmhouse Restaurant .
Off the bat, let me say that I am not a fan of neither baked nor fried apple dishes. I was very happy to have lunch at this restaurant however as it is a favorite of my families. I was not however ready for the apple fritters. The fritters are basically an elongated sugar donut with the apple butter in a dish on the side. I was going to eat just the donut part but I decided I would give it a shot and try the apple butter. It was fantastic! It was one of the best sweets I have ever had. If you need a respite from your holiday shopping or you are in the area for vacation, seek out the Applewood Farmhouse Restaurant. It is not hard to find but it is definitely worth a try! And don’t forget the Applewood Julep!
