Miss Irene’s opening

It must be getting close. There are menus posted on the door of the once scruffy, old-time Fells Point bar, which has been renovated into a spiffy, modern-day bistro. The web site still proclaims an Oct. 28 opening. Obviously, that didn’t happen. I have a call into owner Ben Greene to see if I can […]

Baltimore’s newest diner

Zodiac fans can rejoice. The restaurant’s chef Christina DiAngelo will be whipping up favorite dishes at a new, nearby restaurant in the Station North Arts district called Lost City Diner, says owner Joy Martin, who also runs Club Charles.
Zodiac (1726 N. Charles St.) closed suddenly in August when a gas line was cut to the […]

The chef is back

You may remember Christian DeLutis as one of B-mag’s top singles. We knew him as the creative executive chef at The Wine Market in Locust Point. Christian left in early May to head to Ireland for a cooking gig. But securing a work visa proved difficult, and now he’s back in Baltimore, looking for a […]

Burger with a Heart

A new burger joint is coming to Baltimore—Elevation Burger (655 Aliceanna St., Harbor East, near the Marriott Courtyard, elevationburger.com). But this won’t be your typical fast-food hamburger. Elevation Burger is all about healthy ingredients. It cooks its french fries, made fresh, in olive oil, offers two kinds of veggie burgers, and uses only 100 percent […]

Sweet Treat in Hampden

Does Baltimore need another bakery? You bet, especially when the proprietor/baker is Anisha Jagtap, 23, a former executive pastry chef at Sasha’s who trained with Ned Atwater. Anisha showcases her tempting fare from 8 a.m.-7 p.m. Tuesday-Sunday in a tiny rowhouse on The Avenue (830 W. 36th St., 410-878-1266, puffsandpastries.com).
She opened last Saturday to attract […]

New wine shop/café in Fells Point

The dream of Kristina and Mark Bachman is now open. V-NO (905 S. Ann St., next to Bonaparte Breads, 410-342-8466) offers bottles from $10-30, which are stacked into sections like bubbly, crisp, big, and juicy, as well as by the glass ($6-10) at the intimate bar and tables. “We want to make it as easy […]

We found Chef Joshau Hill

I just got a call from Chef Josh, who’s been trying to set up his own restaurant since leaving Night of the Cookers. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to make that happen, but, not to worry, he’s now serving up his Southern-inspired food again—this time at Robert Oliver Seafood Restaurant, 1225 Cathedral St., 410-528-5950, starting today. […]

Taste restaurant is now Crush

Baltimore’s newest restaurant, Crush, is scheduled to open Wednesday (Aug. 6) in the space formerly occupied by Taste, 510 E. Belvedere Ave., reports Chris Stutz, a regular contributor to B-mag. Here’s what she found out after talking to chef/owner Daniel Chaustit.
The name refers to the “winemaking season,” according to Dan. It will feature “modern American […]

Dangerously Delicious Pies grand opening

Rodney “The Pie Man” Henry is just about ready for the main event. The new Dangerously Delicious Pies Savory House (3547 Chestnut Ave., Hampden, 410-662-7437) opened quietly less than two weeks ago with a focus on savory pies like steak chili pie and crab-and-cheddar quiche. The lacquered tables are in place, pies of the day […]

Tuscany of Towson

Every time I gripped the wheel and circled the Towson roundabout in recent weeks, I noticed a new dining spot, Sweet Léla’s, in the space where the Towson Delly had once been located. The outdoor tables in front of the restaurant were always packed, and there were tablecloths and comfortable-looking chairs. Even from afar, there […]
