Richard reviews Kolpers

KolpersAgain.jpg

 

I have to say Other Reviewer Richard's review of of the new Kolpers today surprised me. Not the review itself, but the kind of restaurant it ended up being.

Richard is so much more hip than I am he doesn't usually handle the Marconi's of the Jones Falls restaurants. (His phrase. I laughed out loud.)

I would say this is a terrible location, and no restaurant can ever survive where Kolpers is. But then I remember Woodberry Kitchen.

Sometimes it isn't location, location, location.

Loved the mullet restaurant reference:
This makes Kolpers a mullet restaurant ("business in the front, party in the back")...

The Woodberry Kitchen is in a rehabbed development across from the lovely Clipper Mill pool. Kolpers is in a dirt and gravel parking lot in what looks like West Virginia.

That section of the Jones Falls could certainly use a clean-up.

RoCK, have you looked at that section of the Jones Falls lately? I've heard that it's in much better shape than it used to be, although I haven't had the opportunity to check it out for myself.
