  Nah, closed like 3 years ago.
  Some other ok restaurants came in. They are alright, but not great.

  Of the 6 parks I've been to, Camden is my favorite. It's a pretty cool city in the summer.

  Thanks again for the advice everyone, just got back from my trip to Baltimore. My quick review:
  
  * Dinner at Canton Dockside -- Probably the best crabcake and crab bisque I have ever had. GREAT suggestion! Only critique is that the outdoor seating is separated from the Harbor by a parking lot, which was kindof lame.
  
  * Dinner at Blue Agave at Federal Hill -- awesome Mexican food, terrible margaritas.
  
  * Favorite hood was Federal Hill, very cool vibe, fun bars, good people watching. Fells Point was solid as well, but felt a little forced with all the bars next to each other (Max's was a cool spot though).
  
  * Inner Harbor was lame ... basically the same thing as Times Square or Navy Pier but around a Harbor. Touristy and generic.
  
  * Camden Yards experience was AWESOME -- bars outside were fun (Pickle's, Frank and Nic's), Boog's BBQ was damn tasty inside, and Naty Bo's were cheap at the game! Gorgeous ballpark, probably my third favorite after Fenway and Wrigley but slightly ahead of San Fran's AT&T Park.
  
  * The ghetto folks around Pratt Street are legit scary ... never felt nervous walking around NYC, but can't say the same for Baltimore.
  
  Overall fun time ... OK city I guess, with some very sketchy neighborhoods. Good crab, cheap drinks, mixed bag of entertainment.

  I mentioned it ... just thought it was ok, Federal Hill was better in my opinion.

  Fells Point is OK. Stayed there one night last summer for a Yanks/O's game. I agree, thought Max's is probably the highlight, great beer selection. Camden Yards is pretty awesome but surprised you would rank it higher than AT&T, I have that as my favorite yard I've been to(excluding Fenway and Wrigley).

  I always wanted to go to Hamsterdam.

  Tough. It's been 5 years. Omar is dead, Stringer is dead, Bodie is dead, Prop Joe is dead, Snoop is dead, Slim shoots Cheese, Marlo goes back to the corner.
