Enough fine dining already

gjerde.jpgIt sounds like Charlie Gjerde has had enough of fine dining. I finally got him on his cell, and he told me that he is indeed one of the owners of the new Alexander's Tavern, which will be opening where Gemini was in Fells Point. (See previous post.)

It turns out that Alexander is the name of the son of his partner, Carrie Podles. The two are opening a kid-friendly tavern in Fells Point, which is pretty amazing when you think about it. Of course, there will be a bar (this is Fells Point), but there will also be foosball, shuffleboard and a pool table.

The menu is still being developed, but Gjerde says it won't be buffalo wings. The hoped-for opening is early to mid-September.

Kids have no business in Fells Point. God made Bel Air, Westminster, Columbia and Perry Hall for them.

This place is awesome! The food is great especially the tatertot crabdip. It's a great atmosphere to be in...the place is clean and the bartenders are great..esp. carrie!
