Next Sunday's review

Watertable 

People often ask me to recommend a restaurant where they can take out-of-town visitors that has a great view of the harbor and good food. That second part is trickier than the first.

Now the Renaissance Harborplace Hotel in the Inner Harbor has spent $3 million to renovate its dining room and brought in a trend-setting chef to oversee the kitchen.Will the just-opened Watertable be the restaurant I now recommend? Find out in next Sunday’s review in the Arts & Life Today section. One of my favorite appetizers, by the way, was those tempura green beans with aioli and tarragon mignonette sauce (pictured).

what is the place that you currently recommend to out-of-town visitors?

I don't have one.

I wanted to check their menu, but the web site just says "coming soon". The tempura green beans look amazing!

Am I the only one who thinks Watertable is a lousy name for a restaurant ???

The tempura green beans are awesome.

I went to Watertable about 2 months ago, right after it opened, and was impressed with the food but not especially with the service. And while the food was good, I don't think I would deal with the hassle of the Inner Harbor unless I was already there.
