Local Joints In The Baltimore Mag

Two shout outs to Howard County eateries in the August 2010 Baltimore Magazine -- a story about the sun sandwich in the cafe at David's Natural Market in Columbia and a short piece about Pure Wine Cafe in Ellicott City.

Pure Wine is still on my "to do" list, but Karen Nitkin talks up a flatbread with duck, shallots, asparagus and chevre and a pair of meatball sliders.

I can't find links yet, but it's the Best Of Baltimore edition.  The Best Of section is almost hurtfully devoid of Howard County spots.  Eventually, I found a paragraph on The Good Life Market, but apparently the editors couldn't find anything else that they liked here.  Tell them about us Karen!!

Link: Cazbar Kebap House In The Sun

The new Cazbar Kebap House in Columbia gets a review from Karen Nitkin in the Sun -- a similar rave for the beef kebap, but some concerns about the service and some of the dishes.  She also talked up the fruit nectars.

Good to see Nitkin back writing about Howard County food.  I hadn't seen her reviews recently.  I still remember when her husband arrived in the little glass press room at the back of the Hollywood City Hall.  Those were the days . . . .
