"Open from morning until late (midnight), Charles Village’s months-old cafe and bar is a breath of fresh air for Baltimore. The all-day menu showcases a cross-section of Lowcountry favorites, West African street foods, and Caribbean flavors. Start the day with oat bowls and shrimp and grits, followed by smash burgers and kale salads for lunch and cassava fries, red beans and rice, fried plantains, and spicy meatballs for dinner. Drinks swing from a potent Del Corazon cocktail made with Ten to One rum to a homemade ginger juice mocktail." - Jess Mayhugh
