    Saturday in Graffiti Alley behind Motor House, Charm City Night Market hosted Night Market Underground, the third iteration of the popular night market event series helmed by The Chinatown Collective. The event featured one sake cocktail and a selection of sake & shochu from Daikaya, DJ music, and food from Lei Musubi, Otabe by Masako, and Old Boy. I attended this event following the pasta class in DC, and let me tell you the Chinatown Collective are onto something. I suggest joining their mailing list in order to keep up to date on upcoming events. This was the second event I attended, and i can not tell you how joyous it is to see a sea of faces that resemble your own, and there were several people that I talked to that shared my sentiment. People had asked me if there were communities or more events or spaces like this in Baltimore. I did not have an answer, but hope that this keeps gaining momentum. Northern Va is fortunate to have Eden Center, where shops and business provide several resources to the Asian community in providing grocery stores, as well as ready made food shops, and businesses that support and provide Asians ingredients as well as services that are not provided at non- Asian establishments. People of all ages, and races were celebrating good food , great conversation, and music. I have been told that the next Charmcity Nightmarket that will take place in September will be bigger, and will extend over more city blocks. I can not wait. The revival of Chinatown in Baltimore just might happen. Where there is hope, and passion of the community that will build it, it may very well be a success. Joy, kat

    Thank you, Bart!! It was my pleasure to pull this together, and happy to see everyone having a great time. I hope to plan more food & non food events alike. If anyone has any leads on what they may be interested in, please feel free to DM me or take the lead on your own to organize something. Afterall this community is powered by all of your input . We used to have lots real time outings. I hope this restores interests in wanting to gather together outside the forum. It was so nice meeting everyone as well. Cheers, kat

    Van Ness / Sfoglina does not currently offer valet parking at the Van Ness location. We validate parking tickets for up to 2 hours in the Colonial Parking garage found under 4445 Connecticut Avenue. There is also street parking available.

    Not sure about parking, but I will find out and post my findings here. Can't wait to meet and rolls pasta with everyone!

    In an effort to keep the price low, and to appeal to the majority of the group the class only includes a pasta tasting of what will be prepared. I encourage you to arrive earlier to imbibe in adult bevvies and snacks if you would like at your expense. We could always venture elsewhere or on premise for snacks if some of you are interested but I will leave that up to individuals to decide. I have marked the entire day to be in the District, so personally I am open to whatever.

    The class is next week, and we still have 3 spots available. If any members know of anyone outside this forum that may be interested in joining the pasta class, please encourage them to do so. I thought this class would easily garner the interests of 15 members, but we are a bit short at 12 members attending. Please spread the word to friends, co workers, partners, neighbors, mailman, anyone you may think might be interested. For these last 3 slots, payment( $80) can be made directly to me on the date of the event, if funds are a bit short right now, or if you do not happen to have access to Paypal or Venmo. Looking forward to meeting everyone next Saturday!! Help, kat

    I recently was at the Famous 4th St Deli, and let me tell you it was glorious. Portions are gigantic, and matzo ball soup enough for 2 but so good, each person at the table order one. The whilefish salad is what I always crave, and it was a home run with choice of toast or bagel. I should have ordered a knish to be able to report back, but honestly I barely could breath on account I was so full. The charming means in the way they present the check with a housemade chocolate chip cookie is simply adorable. The case of desserts and items to take home are both enormous is size as well as variety. How is it that I have not been here until now? I encourage you all to visit. The setting is charming too boot with the black and while tile floors , egg creams, and placard and photos of famous patrons. Its a treat.

    A group of us will be hitting Merriweather Post Pavillion for a concert this summer. Perhaps I may be able to convince the group to eat here. Thank you for the review!

    Sent you a DM. 🤩

    No worries. This is what Im leaning toward! Arrive a bit early to imbibe on drinks & snacks on your own dime then progress to the pasta class. Just finalizing details. Class will be on 3/30 running from Noonish to 3. The Restaurant doesnt open to the public til 11:30, so this will push the class back a bit. I will have full details as soom as close in on the contract.
