Gourmet Chip Company runs as both a chip maker and a café at 43 1/2 Broadway Street in downtown Asheville, a business that's woman-owned and has kept some of the same staff since it opened in 2011. The chips are made through a low and slow frying process meant to keep them crunchy without excess grease, using hand-blended spices rather than powdered flavorings and no preservatives, in flavors like Bay Salt & Peppercorn, Smoked Hops & Cheddar, Black Truffle Herb, and Belgian Salted Chocolate.
At the café counter, those same chips are served alongside paninis and sandwiches. Reviewers point to combinations built around black forest ham, aged gouda, and goat cheese, along with ravioli and other quick-lunch plates — food-tour stops for people working through downtown Asheville on foot.
