On a frigid Baltimore evening, in which going directly home after work to a warm cup of soup sounds ideal, at least 150 patrons made their way to Linwoods for dinner.

In a town where mediocre seafood is very easy to come by, it’s nice to see that modern yet classic seafood restaurants still exist in Baltimore. Thames Street Oyster house located in Fells Point is quite possibly some of the best and freshest seafood you can find in Baltimore. Like most Fells Point establishments, the […]Read Post ›
Mr. Rain’s Funhouse is an eclectic modern American restaurant located on the top floor of the American Visionary Art Museum.

The name suggests you are lurking into a stripper paradise, but no, it actually is a […]Read Post ›
