RV There Yet?
Silver Service
Once hallmarks of the open road, old-school aluminum campers across the state are shifting gears to become their own destinations for al fresco fare.
The July issue of Our State Magazine is hitting newsstands now, features Jettie Rae's in its story about North Carolina's beloved Airstream eateries.
As the sun sets in north Asheville, seats fill at Jettie Rae’s Oyster House. Outside, a line stretches from a blue-and-white Arete Streamliner on the restaurant’s patio. Oysters have been shucked and served from this mermaid-adorned camper since 2022, two years after the restaurant opened. Designed by Jettie Rae’s owner, Eric Scheffer, The Pearl hosts family-style boils, clambakes, and fish fries as part of its popular Sunday Supper Series. The mobile eatery also freqently appears at Fonta Flora Brewery in Morganton, where diners can enjoy seafood alongside collaborative seasonal beers like The Pearl pilsner, a lighter take on a traditional oyster beer that’s brewed using Jettie Rae’s oyster shells.
