39 Baltimore, MDGOLDEN WEST CAFE This funky cafe has a colourful, eccentric vibe and fits right into the small-town atmosphere of Hampden. It can sometimes feel too cool (and too popular) for its own good, but their food more than makes up for it. I recommend the Mental Oriental salad or the pumpkin pancakes. 1105 West 36th St, Baltimore, MD 21211, www.goldenwestcafe.comIGGIE’S PIZZA Top dollar, wood-fired, thin crust pizza with fresh toppings, loads of vegetarian options, and a BYO policy. Plus it’s dog-friendly. 818 North Calvert St, Baltimore, MD 21264, www.iggiespizza.com MISS SHIRLEY’S Brunch is my favorite meal of the day, and this is one of my favorite places to indulge. Their Roland Park Omelet with asparagus, red peppers, artichoke, and goats cheese is a sight to behold. The Pratt Street branch is across the road from Inner Harbor, so a nice place to walk afterwards. 513 West Cold Spring Lane, Baltimore, MD 21210 and 750 East Pratt St, Baltimore, MD 21202, www.missshirleys.comSOTTO SOPRA A romantic place serving creative Italian dishes. Dim lighting and well thought out decor make it a nice atmosphere – even if it does get crowded at times. It’s pretty pricey, but makes a nice treat. Be sure to finish off the meal with an incredible coffee. 402 North Charles St, Baltimore, MD 21201, www.sottosoprainc.comPAPERMOON DINER This 24-hour diner is a total one-off. Every inch of the space, including the ceiling, is covered in toys, nicknacks, pez dispensers, and weird sculptures. The food is solid, traditional diner fare, but the atmosphere is totally in its own league. 227 West 29th St, Baltimore, MD 21211, www.papermoondiner24.comTHE EVERGREEN A charming, independently run coffee shop with mismatched seats, plants, and the work of local artists creating a homely vibe. Great coffee, sandwiches, and frozen yogurt. 501 West Coldspring Lane, Baltimore, MD 21210THE AMBASSADOR DINING ROOM This upmarket Indian restaurant is basically tucked inside an apartment block. The ambience is always lovely – it opens up onto a large garden in summer, and has a cozy fireplace in winter. The food is not cheap, but it’s good, and you can go for the lunch buffet if you’re on a budget. 3811 Canterbury Rd, Baltimore, MD 21218, www.ambassadordining.comEAT
