Perhaps it’s that South American family familiarity or just that fact that it’s simply delicious? Nestor has been quietly carrying out a box of chicken, rice, black beans and plantains at this Highlandtown spot ever since he saw the doors open on Eastern Avenue. Let him tell you why it’s so high on the list…
Two platters so nice that we had to think twice before we included them both in the 27th Anniversary TastyNes countdown. Our concert promoter pal Paul Manna bumped into Nestor at Costas Inn in Timonium and was given the royal treatment of Crab Imperial and Oysters Rockefeller in the new space at the racetrack.
A man will always love a chocolate chip cookie from his childhood. Behold the cookie that keeps us coming back to Bel Air Road and buying ’em fresh whenever we can. And that’s the way the cookie crumbles…
We love Indian food and love it so much that we want to share our love with the uninitiated and convert the world to chicken tikka masala, aloo gobi and a proper saag paneer. We’ve had a few decent places around over the years but give the Himalayan House in Locust Point some love if you’re local. Get it spiced nice and enjoy that leftover rice!
A sinfully delicious concoction stuffed with blueberries and a touch of sweetness to go along with the dense party of bakery biscuit artistry. It’s right on York Road in Timonium. Don’t skip the donuts or fried chicken sandwiches but this morning treat is a winner.
C’mon, get happy! Fresh, tasty, delicious and just steps away from one of our first sponsors at the Emerald Tavern on Harford Road in Parkville, Happy China makes us happy every time we order carry out. And it’s more often than we admit…
For most of our #TastyNes Tour, we’ve been featuring one special dish – our favorite craving item – on most menus at all of these local places we love. But for Day 16 on this journey, there are simply too many tasty tacos to only test one or two at this oasis in the center of Baltimore. When you go to Clavel, get ready to have the best tacos in town and a flavor you’ll savor.
Pie, oh my!!! Despite the Ugly name, the pies and pastries here are absolutely beautiful. Put a smile and some deliciousness in your pie hole by skipping the bypass on Route 50 in Salisbury and pick your favorite amongst an amazing assortment of fruits and savories – or try finding one in Ocean City. The Death By Coconut won’t kill ya! As a matter of fact, it’ll make ya feel more alive…
This #TastyNes place is not a secret to the savvy eaters of delicious Mexican fare on the east side of town. Nestor goes to Rosedale for another sweet indulgence right at the front counter at Fiesta Mexicana just south of what used to be Golden Ring Mall. One, two, three milks…
Our 27th Anniversary #TastyNes Tour around town brought to you by Curio Wellness as part of our Maryland Crab Cake Tour takes us back to Catonsville and one of the tastiest special occasion treats we can find to splurge on and feel completely self-indulgent in buttery, velvety decadence. The fried lobster tail at The Beaumont is the “other” divine crustacean and is simply perfect in The ‘Ville.
When you have a french bakery and pastry shop this good downtown, you don’t need to jet off to Paris to taste the love. You can eat with your eyes at the counter at Patisserie Poupon on Baltimore Street but don’t sleep on the Gateau Breton. It’s a monster of a cookie!
In modern Baltimore, there are many places serving legit Jamaican cuisine but this is the #TastyNes spot we hit when we’re feeling the reggae vibe for some brown stew chicken or curry and rice and peas. The lunch specials are fantastic, too! Don’t hurry or gorge! Like great soup, it tastes even better as a leftover when those flavors meld…
