Anne and Jon

Considered one of the world's best aquariums, the National Aquarium's mission is to inspire conservation of the world's aquatic treasures. The National Aquarium delivers meaningful experiences through its living collection of more than 20,000 animals from more than 800 species of fish, birds, amphibians, reptiles, marine mammals and sharks, as well as through exclusive behind-the-scenes experiences like sleepovers and tours, science-based education programs and hands-on experiences in the field.

A unit of the National Park Service. Site of the Battle of Baltimore during the War of 1812, where Francis Scott Key was inspired to pen "The Star-Spangled Banner" in September of 1814. Offers tours and live experiences.

Where it all started! 

This is where Anne and Jon went on their first date in 2018. Great for brunch or dinner.  You can't go wrong with this menu. Try the fried pickles and the salt and pepper tuna!

Hampden- 1017 W. 36th Street

Who in Baltimore doesn't love Ekiben? Great options for meat eaters and vegetarians alike. Anne always goes for the Tofu Brah and Jon's a Neighborhood Bird guy.

Fells Point- 1622 Eastern Ave.

Hampden- 911 W. 36th St.

Delicious Venezuelan food!  Luke opts for the tostones and octopus. It's hard to tell if Anne likes this place for the food or the verdant decor.

Station North- 1701 N. Charles St.

The Clark Burger is a favorite of Team Frily. If you're looking for the Sam special, order a plain burger with plenty of ketchup!

North Baltimore- 5906 York Rd.

Quoth Wyatt: "Prepare to get messy!"  Papi's uses quizzically small tortillas, which results in a lot of spillage, but we still love 'em. The guac is Wyatt's go-to.
