Broyhill Center

A view of the mountains

The back deck of the Civic Center

This month the Active Adult group at church went to the Broyhill Civic Center for lunch, which is located on the Appalachian State University Campus and has a terrific view of the mountains. Every year the Center hosts the Twelve Days of Christmas event, which includes a buffet lunch and musical entertainment.  On Wednesday there were only a few tables full of diners.  We made up the largest group with 13.

The food was tasty, although I stayed away from the fried egg rolls and chicken croquettes.  I had a large plate of salad, some salmon, broccoli and corn.  It was hard to choose a desert because the cakes, peach cobbler and various mousses looked delicious.  I opted for the Red Velvet cake and a spoonful of cobbler and whipped cream.  Our entertainment for the day was a wonderful guitar player.  Seated near the large fireplace with the wind howling outside was the perfect way to spend the afternoon.
