Eh, it depends on the situation and people involved. Consequently the city's history, Baltimore has a lot of decent, non-racist white folks. But some of these businesses and institutions are not.

The sidewalks could be treacherous as well. If you need to leave the house via ANY mode of transportation you should really, really try to be back before noon. I've definitely seen the sidewalks turn to solid sheets of ice here a few times and it's not fun.

Chef Paulino's in Catonsville is pretty good. They used to be in Pikesville, but moved. I believe that have one downtown.

There's a little shop in Fells called The Seasoned Olive that I really like for small local things like that. I'd definitely check them out.

Lol nobody said any of that. Nothing that happens in Baltimore doesn’t happen anywhere else.

If you dumped 2000k more people in Baltimore right now all of a sudden those statistics on crime look better and better.

There’s certainly places I wouldn’t go in DC, ATL, etc. and I never want to go anywhere in TX.

I also see a psych here!

Yeah, it was crazy for her that night. She was fortunately able to get a ride with a good samaritan and I managed to pick her up from the gas station nearby. Others abandoned and started walking like you mentioned!

The National Aquarium is always wonderful!

It's disingenuous to pretend that Baltimore isn't uniquely dangerous compared to many other American cities, however, or that it doesn't consistently make that rating. There are precautions that I have to take in nicer parts of Baltimore that I never had to take in the nicer parts of Atlanta, Nashville, Charlotte, D.C., New York, or San Antonio.

Aren’t we getting snow tomorrow?

I figured that may be the case, which is a bummer.

As far as delicious “adult” brunches are concerned, I’ve never had an espresso martini at Water for Chocolate, but I can 100% vouch for their incredible dope juice and the food is top notch.

Check to be sure they’re open - they have weird, limited hours, sometimes!

Cooking classes at Schola or Baltimore Chef Shop. Glassblowing classes at McFadden or Corradetti. Woodworking/soap making/basic plumbing(!)/etc. classes at Station North Tool Library. Wine tasting at Union Collective. A promise to rent out a water taxi when the weather is nice and to stock the bar with her favorite drinks. Duckpin bowling before it goes extinct. A day spent bopping around the various museums with you.

I'm sure there are small businesses that have it, but I've gotten one at williams sonoma

> temperature is supposed to go from 40 to 10 in a matter of hours.

I've heard reports of the temperature dropping in just an hour. Much faster than previous fronts. Absolutely wild.

Seems like they’re dinner only right now. It’s right by our house though so I’ll def take her there at some point!

Thank you!

Only been a thing for the past 20 years. We get the occasional dumps still,.. but now its nothing in between. 3-5 snow days used to be guaranteed,.. and I mean SNOW day

Tochtermans will have choices.

It’s the most irritating thing.

If you want a really great one, call Dale German. four then four then three then 8742804.

I've shucked a boat full of oysters and his knives are the best I've ever used.

Excellent input. Came here to explain this as well.

Department stores in the malls.

Most jewelry stores have watches too

Alleys don't normally get plowed. Make sure wherever you do park that it doesn't say Snow Emergency Route. Some of the signs may be faded.
