The Empress Visits Baltimore
posted May 26, 2017 9:19 AM   RSS

Hi Folks - this is totally last-minute, but my life is a little nuts. but - I'm going to be in Baltimore for Memorial Day Weekend. In the interest of trying to save time deciding, I'll throw out an idea and a date - brunch on Sunday the 28th? Who's down?
I'm staying in an AirBnB in Remington, but otherwise have no concept of what would be a good neighborhood to focus on.

The Papermoon Diner is just north of Remington in Charles Village. It is popular though, so it might be crowded! Papermoon Diner

Lots of great restaurants in B-more, but also likely to be big crowds and wait times. Are you going to have a car, or relying on public transportation/walking? Any dietary restrictions or preferences?

Not sure yet if I'll be able to join, but just wanted to throw out R House as another brunch option. It can be a bit of a pain to get a table, but you get tons of food options and can usually carve out a space for a group (I've done 25-person happy hours and book club meetings there before).

I have no car. I also have no dietary restrictions.

But I fear I may have been too last-minute this time, as it sounds like people just aren't all that available (and I am thinking of going to Ft. McHenry tomorrow morning early anyway, now).

But if anyone has ideas for lunch or dinner on Sunday instead that could work. And I suspect this won't be my only trip.

I'm not sure I could make it tomorrow but R house is a pretty good location for something like this (and pretty good in general), and probably very close to where you are staying. (It's been a while since a Baltimore meetup!)

I am available, but this is a bad weekend to plan something at the last minute for people who don't know each other.. I'll watch this space, but if you're sure there'll be a next time, it might be better then.
