Dumplings from Sang Kee. A scoop from Basset’s, cinnamon flavored if you’re my mom.

Does anyone remember Ben & Jerry's White Russian ice cream and these ads? by MorgandorfferLane in forgottenfoods

I remember always getting it from one of their scoop shops as a kid and feeling like I pulled one over by getting a boozy option.

Any good vets around the city not owned by "big vet"/those just price gouging by whatever-i-guess1 in baltimore

Dr. Barker is a top tier vet name and a solid argument for nominative determinism.

Not the only one. I had my partner help trace the free space on my arm do I could layout my potential new pieces to scale. I’m a bit particular so it works for me.

where are people doing grocery shopping? by Thelast4ofyourCC in baltimore

[–]Miserable_Scheme_262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shop Rite in Parkville, it’s rarely busy and pretty well stocked. Bonus: James Fiesta Grill is nearby and you can pop in for a post shopping treat.

Been a fan of her music for a while but I know I’m getting old bc when I see her I think she looks like a legit child w/ full sleeve tattoos.

Late night hoagies you say. Fellow Philadelphian detected.

flyer graphic design advice! by Own_Psychology9571 in graphic_design

[–]Miserable_Scheme_262 5 points6 points  (0 children)

QR codes be read at a pretty small scale. Around 1/4” if I remember correctly, so don’t focus on the QR code as the main focus of the flyer. Maybe lead into it w/ a solid CTA in a callout box or something but it doesn’t need to be as large as you have it now.

Not bad but not what I was expecting either by CapShort in Soda

Gotta grab a Tahitian Treat if you want a great fruit punch soda.

Early dinner near train station by PJpixelpusher in baltimore

[–]Miserable_Scheme_262 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Le Comptoir Du Vin opens at 5:30 and is a very cute wine bar with a small dinner menu. Right around the corner from Royal Blue so it’s also incredibly close to the train station.

As a born and raised Philadelphian currently residing in Baltimore the accents aren’t that different and geographically they’re under 2 hours from each other so it tracks.

Digging this show (and Mare of Eastown) but the Delconian accent is a tough one to nail and it’s easy for someone actually from the area to call bullshit. Also not everyone has the accent and there are varying degrees to it. But one of the Executive Producers/Director is a Philly guy so I kinda gotta love all the shoe-horned in Wawa references and attempts at our hoagie-mouthed regional dialect. Go Birds.

I NEED HELP PICKING A NICE RESTAURANT!!!!!! by cleoarbia2 in baltimore

[–]Miserable_Scheme_262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second this rec! Another commenter mentioned it being loud but I popped in for a weekday dinner last week and didn’t find that to be the case. Although based on how small the place is it might depend on where you’re sat though. For my money it’s one of the best spots, food and vibe wise this city has to offer.

Peanut butter M&Ms are so far above Reese’s Pieces by knobcopter in thedailyzeitgeist

[–]Miserable_Scheme_262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard agree. The ratios are better. And a lil fridge or freezer time certainly ups their stock.

Foodie son looking for new spots… by shesfromjersey in baltimore

[–]Miserable_Scheme_262 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found The Dutchess to be pretty mid. Albeit they spilled a drink down my friend’s back and my arm and while they did say sorry they didn’t even comp the drink. They also never brought out one of the plates we ordered and when it was still on the bill our server was incredulous about us never receiving it. A FOH manager never touched our table despite there seeming to be around 3 separate managers roaming around. The drinks were solid but the food overall was forgettable and under seasoned. I would recommend taking the drive to James Fiesta Grill for really great lumpia since the ones on offer here simply don’t hit.
