We normally celebrate Mother’s Day at Omni Grove Park Inn in Asheville NC - however we thought we would try Ballantyne Hotel since we reside close by. The food selections to go with the meat were all veggies/rice/small potatoes - however no Mac n Cheese or a Soufflé-overkill on salad bar veggies and hot veggies-the deserts were all parfaits. For the price you pay - should receive better portions and better overall options of food!
