Red Square's punishment
Red Square, the Russian-themed restaurant and bar in the basement of the Belvedere, finally came before the liquor board yesterday.
They were cited for illegally serving customers twice in the past eight months, and were being protested by the neighborhood. The neighborhood dispute was dropped, but the liquor board did stick Red Square with a $2,250 fine and suspended their license for 60 days, without a stay, according to chairman Stephan Fogleman and this Sun article by Brent Jones.
I've been The Baltimore Sun's nightlife and local entertainment reporter for a couple years, and it's surprising how much the scene has grown in that time. Most of Baltimore's bars and clubs are unpretentious places with fairly cheap drinks and plenty of character. I like dancing and think this city needs more clubs, but nothing beats having a cold, locally brewed beer with friends in a comfortably full corner bar.
