50 Best Restaurants has launched

abacrombieAnd so, my photo-gallery countdown of Baltimore's 50 best restaurants begins today, with nos. 50 to 41.

Since you don't know where the list is headed, you can only speculate wildly about whether a restaurant is ranked above or not at all. 

But you can respond to the ranking of the first 10 -- too low?

I DISAGREE WITH ALL YOUR CHOICES!!!!

Richard dear, I do not think this is such a good idea. Who are you to judge? Are you so special now that you are judging people? You know that you will hurt someone's feelings.

I hope you put your Uncle Julius's sub shop on there. You were always his favorite nephew. Remember when he and Aunt Sylvia took you to Dorney Park? Think about that.

And what in the name of Moses does Monday morning quarterbacking mean? That is not a proper verb. I think you have been spending far too much time with your new sports game friends.

Enough of these tailgate football shenanigans. I did not spend Lord knows how much money on 7 years of clarinet lessons for you to give up on your klezmer band for this sort of lumpen folderol.

Did your little friends like the Jell-O salad? I didn't get a thank you note from you yet.

I double dog dare you not to put Samos ahead of Ikaros and Zorbas!

I understand why Crush squeeked in: it is a good neighborhood restaurant with some flair, but not wonderful. But why on earth did the photographer shoot a boring bacon cheeseburger, and with fries? What about the vertical seafood salad, or the bacon and egg risotto? Richard, I hope you didn't tell the photographer to do this.
P.S. Next time, take your mom with you when you go to dinner, and she'll be happier.

You know what's not fresh or healthy? SPAM.

Some of the Sun's photographers do brilliant work, just stunning stuff. That photo for Nam Kang is very unappealing.

Fresh healthy vending machinesFresh School Healthy Vending Program has been introduced to ensure students of all ages have the opportunity to purchase Natural and Organic Healthy products through convenient and state of the art vending systems.
