Il Porto

Il Porto Italian restaurant has been an Old Town standby for over 30 years. In a previous life a couple of hundred years ago, the building served as a warehouse for merchant ship cargo.

A Night at Evening Star

Evening Star Cafe in Del Ray looks great at night. Although it’s a popular local hangout, it’s a bit pricey for my pocketbook. Here’s what it looks like during the day.

Cold Times

This scene of the Hard Times Cafe was one of my early posts back in May 2006.

Chart House Lighthouse

The Chart House restaurant on the marina has a built-in lighthouse. I don’t know whether it’s real or not.

Generous George’s

Generous George’s Positive Pizza and Pasta Place on Duke Street has been around since 1977, a remarkable feat in the restaurant business. Recently the building got a facelift with a fresh coat of cotton candy pink paint and new awnings, making it much more inviting. It’s been awhile since I’ve been there. Guess it’s time to return and see whether the inside has gotten a facelift, too. All I remember is the portions were huge, and the lasagna and margaritas were outstanding. No wonder they’ve been in business for so long.
