With its 25 years of delicious service to the community, The Orchard has earned the status of Cashiers Landmark. You can find out for yourself at theorchardcashiers.com, but come on – it’s a restaurant – stop in at 905 Highway 107 South.

Rachel Lewicki’s Mason Jar Salad Dressing and Blueberry Burrata Salad bring the best of the season’s many sensations to palates here on the Plateau and far beyond. Her Simple Grilled Salmon completes the experience.

Rosé is the perfect complement to a mellow Plateau June.

Oh, the things they’re planning – May’s Highlands Supper Club event is a blending of bold California vintages with Chef Aaron Kulzer’s endlessly surprising Southern Appalachian-infused dishes.

Owning and operating the Plateau’s pâtisserie is anything but a cakewalk. It’s more like a happy pie hop. Jennifer Colson’s splendid treasures are on display at The Baked Bunny at 177 Main Street in Highlands.
