Ho Chi Mihn Recommendation for Birthday Celebration
My husband and our two children (20s) will be visiting Ho Chi Mihn for the the first time on my husband's birthday. We have been to Asia several times; this is our first trip to Vietnam. We would like to surprise my husband with a special meal on his birthday. This can be something expensive, or not, but most importantly memorable as a special occasion in Ho Chi Mihn. We are adventurous eaters with no strong dislikes. I guess we lean towards fresh ethnic ingredients, but then who doesn't?!
Need some specific rec's for Baltimore (Canton/Fells Point)
Completely agree that the food is better at Peter's Inn, but i thought they opened at 6:30 for dinner and did not have a happy hour?

Friday evening - Kooper's on Thames St. They have a buffet with seafood options and the place is named after a dog.
Saturday lunch - The Point on Thames St. They have outdoor seating and a special menu just for dogs (bones, etc.)
Captain James crabs are great and given the convenience a good choice for you. Their outside seating over the water is a nice option.
If you don't mind a wait, Blue Moon for breakfast. If you would rather not stand in line, Jimmy's in Broadway Square.
Grazing - wings from Kislings and tacos from Tortilleria Sinaloa - both are only a block or two up from the water (Fleet St and Eastern Ave).
Unique cocktail menu - Pazo. But, they are a bit persnickety with their dress code. If you want more casual One Eyed Mikes makes the best margaritas!

VNo at the bottom of Ann Street in Fells Point. Weather permitting there is sitting outside. Very nice setting. They have a light menu offering cheese plates, etc.

Started RW off with a bang - lunch at Ambassador and dinner at Oceanaire. My experience at Oceanaire was very similar to jerseygirldawn. Felt like most dishes were preassembled and reheated. I actually enjoyed the clam chowder; highlight of the meal. Didn't bother with eating the dessert.
My lunch at Ambassador was close to perfection! What a nice way to sample some of their dinner entrees on a budget. First course vegetable samosa was wonderful, Shahi Korma and a crab dish (not on the website menu) entrees were exceptional and served in portions difficult to finish - but we couldn't stop eating!
Highly recommend Ambassador for RW!
Good Tapas in the City? Best first date restraunt?
Mezze. I was on a date once at Tapas Teatro and we were asked to finish our bottle of wine and the bar (very tiny busy bar) so they could re-seat the table. Mezze has nice outdoor seating and several different dining rooms to make the experience more intimate.
FAMOUS YAKITORI ONE - BALTIMORE
I called their number and the person answering said that they are renovating and will be re-opening, they just don't know when. They have a big JHU following so hopefully they will re-open by the end of the summer.
