About this blog
Richard Gorelick was appointed The Baltimore Sun's restaurant critic in September 2010. Before joining the paper staff fulltime, he contributed freelance criticism and features articles about food to area and regional publications. Along the way, he dispatched for short-distance trucking companies, shilled for cultural non-profits, and assisted in cognitive neurology research – never the subject, always the control.
He takes restaurants seriously but not himself, and his favorite restaurant is the one you love, too.

Peter was a regular at the old Miss Irenes in Fells Point in the late nineties until the bar closed,and he was a great person. He was a Saturday regular who loved shooting pool and having great laughs with the rest of the denizens. He was part of what makes Fells Point,and the city,great;he truly enjoyed life!!

Peter's daughter and her mom are friends of my wife. She was shocked when I gave her the news, and we offer our condolences to the entire family. As the songsmith once wrote, All things must pass. But knowing that doesn't make it any easier.
Back in the day, I would go to Miss Irene's for a cheap game or 2 of pool, and probably played a few games with Peter.
That makes two institutions that will be missed, but not dismissed.
It is said time marches on.
I think it floats upstream, takes us along with it, and gently deposits us in a calm lagoon, right back where we started.
Life is short; but it is everything.
Enjoy your rest, Peter.

I left every conversation with Peter with a smile.
