Lidl demolished the former supermarket and built a new store in its place, but the building has sat empty.

The Old Maryland Tavern Where One Ghost Story Still Gives Regulars The Chills

Baltimore has more than one Bertha, and mixing them up is easier than finding parking on a Friday night. The famous name many people link with the waterfront and mussels belongs to a different story, so this article sets the record straight and heads north to a much younger spot on the east side of the city.

Ever Eaten A Lake Trout Sandwich? Six Baltimore Carryouts Have Fried Them For Generations

Here is a fun Baltimore secret: lake trout is not actually trout, and it usually does not come from a lake. In Charm City, the name refers to fried whiting, a mild white fish that gets breaded, seasoned, and served on plain white bread with hot sauce close at hand.

This Maryland Deli Is Winning Over Locals With Its Enormous Pastrami Sandwiches

Pastrami gets piled so high here that the sandwich needs two hands and maybe a game plan. That’s the reputation this Maryland deli has built, one stacked rye at a time. The menu doesn’t stop at pastrami, either. Corned beef, Reubens, brisket, and matzo ball soup all share the spotlight.

Taco Bell construction update in Rockville

Construction of the new Taco Bell restaurant building continues at 1100 Rockville Pike. It's not moving fast enough for diehard fans of the Mexican mega chain. But the building is now enclosed, and as you can see, glass has been installed. Will it be done by the end of the year? I'm not optimistic, given the current status of the construction. This is the best Taco Bell in Montgomery County, so impatience is a virtue.
