where to eat after the NCAA Lacrosse Finals Monday night?
We will definitely be dressed very casually and are looking for a place to get good, reasonably priced food. We will have some 19 year olds with us, so wine-bars are out.
We can drive, out of town if necessary since we will be heading west after the game. So, any suggestions for downtown Baltimore near M&T or Ellicott City or Columbia?
Thanks all..
Everyday Frederick, MD
Favorite traditional tex-mex style Mexican places are Cacique in downtown and Mexicali Cantina on Patrick St. NEVER go to La Paz - it's awful. If you are looking for traditional tacos (on corn tortillas like in Mexico), try Taco Michoacan on rt 40. Vietnamese - Lucky Corner is ok, but we prefer VIet Gourmet on Rosemont. Favorite places for continental/upscale AMerican are Mick's AMerican Bistro and Monocacy Crossing.
Great places for sandwiches and amazing baked goods: The Buzz in Monrovia. Great Italian subs: Juliet's Cafe on Church St. in downtown.

Decent Mexican in the hotel zone of Cancun or only downtown?
Our hotel is close to an hour from downtown Cancun. We often make the trip in to spend the evening wandering and grazing for food. Just wondering if anyone has found decent food in the hotel zone itself...
IN the Hotel Zone we have been to La Disteleria, la Placita, Hacienda Sisal, Mocambo, Paloma Bonita, Captain's Cove, Plantation, La Joya, Senor Frogs (!), Carlos & Charlies (we have teenagers ), La Dolce Vita, Casa de las Margaritas
Have we missed something good?
Downtown we like La Parilla, Los Primos, la Placita - but hope to find some other good ones on this trip
