Just to further assist with locating the restaurant I went ahead and took some screen shots.
The first picture is one of the Brevard Road/Ridgefield Blvd intersection. This is important because if you’re heading SOUTH you will need to make a left on to Ridgefield to get I to the shopping center because it is a divided highway. Don’t worry if you miss this turn because your next left will also be Ridgefield as it loops around.
As of the time the ‘Google’ car drove through, this is what the shopping plazas sign looks like. I believe it says Plaza - Biltmore Square but I can’t mke out the last word for sure. Note the prominent Big K because the restaurants name is absent. If you’re heading NORTH you can pull directly into the shopping center.
The arrow points to the restaurant. Right at the end nearest the Big K/K Mart.
This should clear up any questions but if you have them please ask them and I’ll do my best to answer. I’ve never been to this place but the people who have apparently love it. I’m sure we’ll have a similar experience.

We left Portsmouth Island, NC yesterday. We've never driven the beaches of Australia but it can't be any better.

See you all there! If you see me stop by and say hi!
It going to be cold, so don't leave your cold weather gear at home like we did.
Not sure if I'll make it for the lunch. I'm hoping to make it to drive over together. I have to wait for my son to finish one of his classes before we can leave. Hopefully traffic will be light and we can make it over in time.

Safe travels to you all!!!! And hope to stop by and break some beers with you all. @overlanding_4_sanity OB#1945 checking in!!![emoji106][emoji109][emoji95][emoji481][emoji481][emoji481]
