Was also thinking about Hamilton Tavern. Thoughts? Fri Dec 26 09:36:22 -0800 2008 15635 ChristineR 1 4274411 Do you know that Hamilton Tavern is about a half-hour from BWI? South Baltimore is closer: Thai Arroy, Rub, Ryleigh's, Metropolitan Fri Dec 26 13:27:44 -0800 2008 4274025 48787 davestar 1 4274511 Timbuktu is close to BWI, we go for the for crab cakes, I prefer them broiled not fried.

You can check out one of the longest threads in CH history on the topic. It's maybe 15 minutes from BWI. Timbuktu, and its cousin G&M are pretty controversial on this forum, but close to BWI. You may want to check out old posts on the subject. Fri Dec 26 15:13:33 -0800 2008 4274025 54408 baltoellen 2 4276099 I'm with ellen. If you don't go to Grace Garden you're making a mistake. Order off the Chinese menu -- it's translated. This is suberb. Nothing else will even come close.
