We’d like to introduce
ourselves…we’re Mary, Dave & Ariel
Pearson, Razcal’s owners and operators. We’ve been
in the restaurant/bar/nightclub business for many years, always working
hard for others. We’ve bar-backed, bussed, washed dishes,
cooked, bartended, hosted and performed as stage entertainment;
singing, disc-jocking and doing stand-up comedy. We’ve worked
very hard to get here and have created in Razcal’s a great
locals gathering spot for the over twenty-one and the perpetually young
at heart set. With our years of experience we hope to offer something
for everyone under one roof. Quality casual food, a full bar and a
friendly family staff that genuinely wants you to have a great time and
become one of our Razcal’s regulars! We feature great live
entertainment, Mama & Papa Razcal, performing as
“Miss-Behavin”, plus regular local bands, a
“no-kidding” dance floor, regulation pool tables,
darts, fooz ball, arcade & board games, and
Asheville’s only shuffleboard table. Our motto is
“Something for Everyone…But ya’ Gotta be
Twenty-one!” Yes, we love kids and pets, but all of us need a
place of our own to unwind with other adults.
We
intend to be active members of the Asheville community and will strive
to make Razcal’s a regular participant in worthwhile
charitable events. We’re not a franchise…we are a
hometown, family owned and operated business. Having done every job in
the business, we understand the demands and challenges that confront
our staff and we work hard to make their job fun and productive. In the
end, we believe that you, the customer, are our family’s
personal guest. When you’re having a good time so are we! If
you have any suggestions, we want to hear them. Most of our best
practices have come from our guest’s suggestions. So leave
your burdens at the door, sit back relax and let us serve you a great
meal, a cool beverage and put a smile on your face!
Sincerely,
Mary,
Dave & Ariel Pearson – (Mama, Papa & Baby
Razcal, your hosts)
Dave
Pearson, LM-193, a.k.a. FNG, always
wanted to be in a position where he could open the bar up to his fellow
CCTer's. I thought he may have gone over the edge when
he sent an open invitation to all CCT to enjoy a weekend of
libations and sustenance on Davey and Razcal's, but he'd
recognized we weren't quite up to our old days of
consumption.
There were only a few of us
"Wild Hog's" that were able to enjoy the invite and I was the
youngest one there, which means I had the most FUN! However,
I'm sure you'll find those that would argue that point.
Bob Bieber, Steve Polofka,
Clyde Howard, Jim Hiser, and myself all drove in from the Nashville
Mini Reunion, but it wasn't just to partake in Davey's generosity.
We were also on a mission to pay our respects to J.P.
Lagerloef, who died a few months earlier in an aircraft accident.
