Mochjas TR

DDF DO Planning Thread

Seven Mile Market - supposedly the largest kosher supermarket in the country.

Market Maven (formerly Seasons) - great prices for meat and chicken, also good place for shabbos food


Hotels:
Only 1 Close and decent hotel to Jewish area (but not quite walking distance) is this Hilton Doubletree

Airbnb in the frum community:
Eruv Inn
Edelweiss - Located about 15 minutes from the frum community, practically next door to Ateres Elka wedding hall

Yesh is really good. Very authentic
Taam Thai has a soft opening, i believe
Was in town for the past week.

Had the shawarma laffa from Yesh. Very flavorful, salads not too overwhelming. Great sandwich. 10/10.

Taam Thai:
Sushi is delicious, 10/10. Got 2 regular rolls, nothing fancy (if you can’t make a great salmon avocado roll, don’t even bother selling sushi (ahem Caramel, take sushi off your menu. Terrible excuse for sushi. Actually pretty much everything we got from Caramel was very disappointing (only went with them cuz wanted a place that has pizza and sushi, to satisfy everyone without getting multiple places)..
“Thai inspired” volcano crispy and the crispy beef just tasted like regular Chinese food. Dumplings were nice. Beef lo mein was nothing special.
David Chu beef lo mein on the other hand never disappoints.

Very scary!
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.baltimoresun.com/maryland/baltimore-county/towson/cng-co-to-crime-0715-20200713-w3rksc3w35dkzf725dubjnx2wq-story.html%3foutputType=amp

Scary indeed. I'm surprised the police took action in this case, at least that's some positive news. I know firsthand of many stories where jewish teenagers are accosted, harrassed, and robbed just for walking on Baltimore streets and looking the way they do. The typical reaction the police have for the victim is to say, "is this the first time it's happened to you?" and that's as far as they'll take it.

Maybe b/c its in the County as opposed to the City....
Not too much happening in the County while in the city these things are just more common.

Naaah same thing happens on Smith and on the way to the quarry. Difference here is the mall has cameras. They picked him up for something else already so at that point they added another charge.
