Baker’s Dozen: Lori Yanke of John Brown General & Butchery

September 5, 2023 by Amy Langrehr

I can’t remember when I first met Lori Yanke, or rather, heard about her via social media and the Baltimore restaurant world. Sometimes those two things don’t equal each other. I mean, isn’t it true that sometimes you follow someone’s work (and social media account…) you feel as if you know them? That happens in …

A Visit to Burnt Hill Farm

August 29, 2023 by Amy Langrehr

I recently took a week off from work to do “life” stuff. I spent time figuring out where everything will live in my new place, had lunch with a friend, went to the pool, visited a few thrift stores and took a lotta lotta of naps. But the very best thing I did was drive …

Baker’s Dozen: Kris Fulton of Sophomore Coffee

August 22, 2023 by Amy Langrehr

I first met Kris Fulton at LAMILL Coffee at the Four Seasons in Harbor East. God, I loved that place. I think it was 2012 or so and I was very excited to attend my first cupping class. Kris was running it on a live video screen, virtually from California, where he was based at …

Baker’s Dozen: Patrick Del Valle of Petit Louis Bistro

June 24, 2023 by Amy Langrehr

Bonjour! That is how you are likely to be greeted by Maître d’Hôtel Patrick Del Valle as you cross the threshold of the very lovely Roland Park restaurant, Petit Louis Bistro. Patrick makes you feel so welcome and his warmth is absolutely genuine. And, yes, his accent is real – he’s from Lyon, France. (The …

Baker’s Dozen: Brendon Hudson of Allora, Velleggia’s, Zander’s (and more!)

June 14, 2023 by Amy Langrehr

When I started thinking about this new feature, I decided that I wanted to profile a few people I don’t actually know personally. These would likely be chefs, owners, etc who run places or create products or experiences that I am continuously drawn to, even though I don’t know the people behind the scenes. Brendon …

Baker’s Dozen: Toni Lopes of Dylan’s Oyster Cellar

June 6, 2023 by Amy Langrehr

When I grab a seat at the bar at Dylan’s Oyster Cellar, I’m so happy when I see Toni Lopes. She not only shucks oysters perfectly, she’s also warm and welcoming and we always have a good catch up. I’ve known her a good little while now and I’m pretty sure that I first met …

Baker’s Dozen: Andre Barnhill of Clavel

May 21, 2023 by Amy Langrehr

The first drink Dre Barnhill made for me was a Whiskey Smash – I think it was about nine years ago. I remember that night being a good one, out with really good friends sitting outside on a warm summer night. I also remember Dre as being friendly and knowledgeable and making all of the …

Baker’s Dozen: Damian Moseley of Blacksauce Kitchen

May 7, 2023 by Amy Langrehr

I met Damian Moseley many years ago. I immediately liked him. He’s quietly confident, very thoughtful and works really, really hard. You may know Blacksauce from area farmers markets or maybe you go to their storefront in Remington – or both. The storefront is fairly new, and as you may know, they had a major …

Mindful Drinking

April 3, 2023 by Amy Langrehr

The world of booze-free cocktails is changing very, very quickly, friends.  Gone are the days of your only non-alcoholic (NA) options at a bar or restaurant — or at home for that matter — being soda, iced tea, water, juice, etc. Boring. So limited! But, with the rise of “mindful drinking”, lots of exciting new …
