Default Visiting Baltimore Saturday

Hey Mid-A

I'm going to be taking a drive down to Inner Harbor on Saturday for a good half of the day. I do plan to eat a lot of seafood so if you guys got any suggestions on seafood buffets that would be great! Also, any suggestions on things to do or places to visit would be nice also. We might stop by the aquarium at Inner Harbor and walk around that shopping place for a bit but that's all I know. I've been there once to visit a friend who lives around there but this time I'm going with no area guidance so any help would be great.

Seafood buffet all-u-can eat place would be the best since I can eat like a million dollars worth of seafood. I wouldn't mind traveling outside our destination 20 miles max. Thanks mid-A!

I trash talk on baltimore all the time but I was there this past monday and surprisingly its not that bad, they have cleaned up the inner harbor a lot.

Be prepared to get IDP'd by parking prices especially in that garage behind the aquarium. Other than that its nice little area, maybe check out Little Italy as well its just a block in the other direction. Be prepared for some O's mania, the Orioles are actually doing OK this year and the city is pretty excited.

As usually Baltimore does have its excess filth and excess murder rate and excess drugs...make sure you keep an eye out, if you stick around the harbor you'll be ok...

for the aquarium. i must say that the quality of Phillips' food has gone down from what it used to be, so i don't really eat there anymore, but i also haven't been in a while so i don't know for sure.

Thanks guys. The aquarium sounds like a winner

How about this Philips buffet place? Is that hidden somewhere in the shops?

And of course - more suggestions! Thanks again

There is no dolphin show at the aquarium for the next two weeks, one of the dolphins just had a baby, I found this out the hard way. Philips Seafood doesn't have a buffet- i don't think you may want to call and double check.

Whats the fix with buffet anyway? Are you trying to do a crab feast kind of thing?

Aquarium is also "Crazy" expensive I think its like $28 a person now or something like that. I think you can skip it and be ok Take the extra money and go to Macormick and Schmits or Ruth's right behind the aquarium...
