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

Eruv Inn

Definitely.  But you'll need to register it to a NY address, pay NY insurance, etc.  Price that out before making a decision.  But just from the cost of the lease NY will be cheaper.
so I'm able to register it under a NY address. but i won't be able to add it my own insurance that i have on my own car in baltimore?

Hmmm, good question.  I don't think so but I'm not certain.  They'll ask where it's kept and then wonder why it's not registered in the state where it's kept.

Milk and Honey should be, Goldberg's is, the pizza shops are, and I would assume Eden Cafe is too.

Including the house next door to me. But then you're stuck with me as a neighbor  ;)

And I never sit outside, too many bugs. At least that's what my irrational fear is.

Any leads on a ride to NY this Friday for one nice (in my biased opinion) young (in my opinion) man? More than willing to contribute to gas and tolls.
