iltmore Village is cele-brating the magic of theholidays with theatricalcharm this weekend asthe Montford Park Play-ers join strolling jugglers,

musicians, storytellers and moreon the streets, shops and mainstage of the historic community.

At the annual Dickens in theVillage event, you might run intocharacters like Tiny Tim and Ebe-nezer Scrooge or your favoritetraditional musicians, such asBeth and Jim Magill, Don Pedi orWhitewater Bluegrass Companyat a Biltmore Village restaurant,shop, gallery or hotel.

“What we do is scenes fromCharles Dickens’ ‘A ChristmasCarol,’” said Hazel Robinson,founder and chair emeritus of theMontford Park Players. “We go inand out of the shops, in front ofthe shops, we tailor the perfor-mance to the space that is there.”One scene that plays out isScrooge and the solicitor who askshim for contributions for the poor.

“We’ve been with the DickensVillage program every year sincethey had the idea of doing it,” Rob-

inson said.This is the 23rd year for the

event, and more than 300 per-formers in a wide range of stylesroam the village, many taking aturn on an outdoor main stagebefore heading off to visit mer-chants.

“This is the ideal spot for aDickens festival,” said Stan Col-lins, head of the Biltmore VillageMerchants Association and ownerof Once Upon a Time toy and bookstore. “All the buildings in thevillage have an English cottagelook, similar to the kind of lookassociated with ‘A Christmas Car-ol.’”

Some store owners and employ-ees dress up like Dickens charac-ters. Music and entertainment arecontinuous and sometimes sponta-neous.

“It’s fun when it’s unexpectedand a group starts singing in astore,” Collins said. “We bring in

street performers, you walk downthe street, and there’s a juggler,the mime is terrific.”

English village in N.C.The look of Biltmore Village is

a long-term historic plan.“It was created by the Vander-

bilts when they had finished theconstruction of the Biltmore Es-tate,” said Collins. An architectfrom England was engaged todesign the village; a train alreadyran to the village station, bringinggoods for the estate.

L ast week we decidedto try the Red StagGrill, located within

the Grand Bohemian Ho-tel at 11 Boston Way inBiltmore Village.

Rather than feeling likea hotel, it felt like a Van-derbilt hunting lodge. Thearea surrounding the hugestone fireplace, an un-deniable focal point, held avariety of things to keepyour attention — every-thing from jewelry andwatches to ties and oilpaintings from the giftshop, as well as displayedantique guns.

I wouldn’t mind havingto wait on a table here,especially if it’s cold out.

Ornate wood was ev-erywhere, along with avariety of plush and well-spaced seating arrange-ments accented by richreds and subtle lighting. Iwas wondering if we weregoing to be able to readthe menu until it wasopened. It was backlit andsomething I haven’t expe-rienced before.

A large chandeliermade from tree limbs anda few mounted huntingtrophies supported theoverall feel.

To start off we orderedthe hunt plate, which in-cluded Black Forest ham,Molinari salami, soft andaged cheeses, Lusty Monkmustard, olives and rusticbread, along with the lumpcrab cakes with a capermustard Wendell sauceand fresh greens.

The hunt plate wasyour basic meat andcheese board. What wasspecial was the LustyMonk mustard, one of thebetter locally producedcondiments. It’s good withjust about anything.

The lump crab cakeswere great and ended upbeing my favorite dish ofthe night. They had plentyof crab meat and a nicebrowned crust. The tasteof lemon came straight tothe foreground from thecakes and the sauce.

The Wendell sauce wasthe best single element ofthe night. Sometimes thebrininess of capers can beoverpowering, but theseoffered more of a texturalelement than an aggres-sive flavor profile.

For the entrees weopted for the Carolinabison ribeye topped withseared foie gras and Stagfries with truffle oil andcheese on the side, as wellas the Hayes braised shortribs, which was servedwith whipped potatoes,braised local greens andsome reduced braisingliquid.

When the ribeye cameout, it was the scent of thetruffle oil on the Stag friesthat made itself known —pungent and earthy. Theshoestring fries were thin

and crispy, which addedthe best textural contrast.Just enough meltedcheese, herbs and sea-soning to help counter thetruffle oil.

I enjoyed the lack of a

strong char flavor on theribeye. The pure, almostuntouched taste of themeat was a welcomedsight. For the lack of fat inbison meat, the steak hadretained most of it mois-

ture through the cookingprocess.

The serving size of the

sautéed fois gras was alittle small for the price.But it was well-seared andhad just began to meltslightly on top of theribeye. My kind of sauce.

The short ribs werelisted as being smoked,seared and braised in acombination of Green ManIPA and veal stock. Theribs weren’t overcookedand maintained theirmeaty texture. Their fla-vor was well-developedand the serving size wasample. Unfortunately thekitchen forget to removethe butcher’s twine, whichwas a little disappointing.

For the rest of theplate, the whipped pota-toes were smooth, nograininess. The reducedbraising liquid wasn’t oily

and worked well witheverything on the plate.

I didn’t pick up anysmoke on the ribs, but thegreens were heavilysmoked. Not bad for thefirst few bites; halfwaythrough the plate, theydominated everythingelse.

A slice of apple pie,some vanilla ice creamand a Chimay ale felt likean appropriate way to endour meal. The pie’s doughhad some issues. It wasoverworked and the thick-ly rolled outer crust cameout raw. The apples keptsome of their crisp tex-ture and weren’t overlysweet.

I didn’t know that

One of the wonderful thingsabout Christmas is how uniqueyou can make it. Your deco-rating is just so, the dishes youplan reflect your personal taste.Your gift-giving can be asunique if you present your peo-ple with one-of-a-kind creationsthat they and no one else in theworld will possess.

We’re talking about works ofart, of course. Art doesn’t haveto be expensive, and it doesn’texist only in downtown Ashe-ville’s art galleries or in theRiver Arts District studios.

It’s all about Biltmore Village,where it can be seen, beheld andpurchased in a setting that couldbe a set for a Christmas moviethat features the village’s tree-lined streets and tinsel-wrappedbannisters leading up steps intoa remarkable array of shopsfestooned for the festival sea-son.

There are five galleries inBiltmore Village — Bellagio,Bella Vista Art Gallery, GrandBohemian Gallery, New MorningGallery and Thomas Kinkade atBiltmore Village. They are allwithin a short walk of each oth-er, and you can make a day ofgallery shopping by havinglunch at one of Biltmore Vil-lage’s several restaurants.

“Any reason is a good reasonto collect art,” said ChristinZelenka, owner of Bella VistaArt Gallery. Exclusivity is cer-tainly one of them, she said. “Forexample, if someone wants tocollect an August Hoerr paint-ing, that collector can either goto Bella Vista Art Gallery or (to)Bath in the United Kingdom.”

Bellagio (5 Biltmore Plaza,277-8100, www.bellagioarttowear.com) specializes in what itcalls “art to wear.” Here you’llfind a dress, a shawl or a lovelypiece of jewelry that your luckyrecipient will love wearing to adinner party.

All of the offerings in this20-year-old shop are created byAmerican artists, among themBabette Pinsky and JosephineTchang, whose dresses, tops andpants are so comfortable andbold of shape and color that theyneed (and have) little embellish-ment. Store hours are 10 a.m.-7p.m. Monday-Saturday and 11a.m.-5 p.m. Sunday.

Bellagio’s sister gallery isNew Morning Gallery, whosehistory is the very history ofBiltmore Village’s grand re-surgence from neglect in the1970s to splendor today.

New Morning Gallery (7Boston Way, 274-2831, www.new-morninggallerync.com) is a12,300-square-foot building of allthings artistic — decorative andfunctional crafts that will look

beautiful in anyone’s home (per-haps your own?).

More than 35 years old, theshop has exquisite jewelry,glasswork, ceramic ware, gar-den sculpture and the largestselection of Sticks furniture inthe Southeast. Hours are 10a.m.-6 p.m. Monday-Saturdayand noon-5 p.m. Sunday.

Grand Bohemian Gallery (11Boston Way, 398-5555,www.bohemianhotelasheville.com) is in the GrandBohemian Hotel, an architectur-al beauty in which an outstand-ing gallery is almost to be ex-pected.

The gallery showcases the

work of more than 100 artists,some living locally and sellinginternationally. Through Jan 30,the gallery is featuring the workof Asheville artist Stuart Roper.

Walking through the galleryis like walking through a grandsitting room in a spectacularhome, which the hotel certainlyemulates. Hours are 10 a.m.-8p.m. Thursday-Saturday and 10a.m.-7 p.m. Sunday-Wednesday.

Bella Vista (14 Lodge St.,768-0246, www.bellavistaart.com) is a fine art galleryrepresenting artists of a varietyof media, including paintings,pastels, photography and fineceramics, among them.

This month it is featuringwork by photographer PaulOwen, one of the co-foundingdirectors of New York Univer-sity’s photography department.

The gallery has a few niceperks not uncommon among fineart purveyors. It will allow localcustomers to take a piece ofwork home for a few days to seeif it “works.” It offers no-in-terest time payments. Hours are10 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday, Wednes-day, Thursday and Friday and 11a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday.

Representing one of the mostpublished U.S. artists alive isThomas Kinkade at BiltmoreVillage (10 Biltmore Plaza on

Boston Way, 277-0850, www.thomaskinkadeasheville.com).

Kinkade, whose work is oftencompared to Norman Rock-well’s, is the most collectedartist in the country. His workcasts a shimmering light onfarms, country homes and small-town scenes. “My mission as anartist,” Kinkade says on hiswebsite, “is to create glimpses ofa world that are tranquil, peace-ful, and full of the beauty ofGod’s creation. That's what Imean when I talk about sharingthe light.”

Hours are 10 a.m.-5:30 p.m.Monday-Saturday and 1-5:30p.m. Sunday.

The overall ambiance inside of the RedStag Grill is unlike any dining experiencedI’ve had around town. Not your typical Ashe-ville decor, but it pretty much achieves thefeeling I believe they intended on creating:rather polished.
