Oh, this makes me feel bad for Baltimore. Only bad news seem to come out of this town. Its reputation -- both domestically and internationally -- is mostly informed by The Wire, Freddie Gray/BLM, a dysfunctional city government, the 2019 ransomeware attack, the spoiled batch of J&J Covid vaccine... and now this. It's a real shame. It's a good place.

We’ve also got cherry blossoms, some good ramen and a few good breweries. Shocking lack of excellent Mexican food, however. And some world-class hospitals and universities. Don’t take TV shows so seriously.

Not a ton of Mexican food, but if you're open to other Central or South American cuisines, there are a ton of places in upper Fells Point.

Please do yourselves a favor if you haven't already and check out the tacos at Taqueria el Sabor del Parque on the south side of Patterson Park. Also while you're in the area, grab a kilo of tortillas from El Taquito Mexicano in Fells.

BMore Taqueria in Fells Point is pretty good.

Weirdly I think Baltimore is thriving. It just really doesn't advertise itself.

Hopkins is huge.
