Baltimore, my personal favroites
for seafood, i love this spot called catonsville gourmet......i know there are probably better well known seafood spots, and places in the downtown area that are franchised, or sensationalized ...world known as you have you.....but from a personal stand point, it's a small spot, always packed, byob, and extremly classy...food there is fucking amazing, nice raw bar too....
crabcakes.....faidley's lexington market...yea it's the real grimey baltimore....you're around all the stereotypes, the niggaz, fiends, working class of bmore...it ain't pretty.....but the crabcakes there are damn good....damn damn good.....and the oysters are mad cheap too....you order a dozen and you're guaranteed to get like 14 if you tipping
but the best oysters...ryleighs...fedhill.....people will try to get you down to thames street in fell's point, or some more expensive spot.....but the real real in my opinion is ryleighs....best variety of oysters, good prices, and best atmosphere....
burgers.....huge argument in bmore right now, i've heard koopers tavern in fell's, and baltimore burger bar... but my favorite two are abbey's burger bistro, fed hill, and alonso's on coldspring.....i can't choose...both are awesome....alonso's has the better overall menu....and the burgers bruh,.....damn
pizza pubdog-columbia/ dogpub fed hill........i've been going here since forever.....had multiple bdays here, take almost every first date there.....always hang out with friends from out of town.....i simply cannot run out of excuses to go to this spot, even if me and the wife are mad at eachother.....pubdog makes us forget what we were mad about and remember those first few dates when i was still tryna beat.....
nice dinner date....ugh....so many spots....of course i have to rep for the spot i work at......brewer's art.....amazing atmosphere...especially considering the downstairs bar is one of the most chill bars ever.....i mean you can literally have the date of your dreams there....have an excellent gourmet dinner upstairs, and then head downstairs to the cellar bar and continue your evening....shit's a great place.....i lvoe working there.. btu the funny part is my first time going there was a few years before i even got the job....me and the wife were going to a play at center stage, and wanted to grab a nice dinner first to make it a full date....so that's where we ended up.....shit was bomb yo,,,
outside dining....power plant lenikegel beer garden has a cool ass atmosphere for most, but if you want the real head banger that will catch everyone off guard....blue pit bbq.......niggaz ain't even ready for this spot forreal.. can't wait for the first really nice day to hit that spot back up....
sushi/sportsbar/wings....one of the amazing things abotu working security, you find out about gems that you never woulda discovered otherwise......one of the bars i work at...fish head cantina....inexplicably has some of the best food in the whole damn world....shit's in the middle of no where....and is known for having live shows and a neighborhood pool hall.....never would expected it to have the best sushi, best sportsbar atmosphere, and the best wing i've had in a good good while......great staff.....reasonably priced....you get some of the drama of a neighborhood bar....but it makes my list
these are all off the top of my head, but there's so many other places i've been to that i have nothing but good things to say about
if you're ever in baltimore....just tell me what you're looking for and i' positive i can point you in the right direction
