Most blog posts are either Baltimore restaurant reviews or blogs about gastronomic economics. Baltimore restaurant reviews typically take the following form:

• name
• address
• neighborhood
• cuisine
• phone number and website
• cost
• need for reservations
• date of last visit
• Is this restaurant on the national price-quality frontier?
• Is this restaurant on the Baltimore price-quality frontier?

On the right, there is a graphic representation of the price-quality frontier, with a red dot representing this restaurant. A review follows below. Note that you can post comments, bookmark posts or email posts to friends by clicking the appropriate icons below each post.
