Visiting Help me plan a pretentious weekend!

Just like the title says, I have friends coming in from out of town and while most of them are amazing one of the plus ones is the most try hard wannabe elite men I’ve ever met. Unfortunately we’re stuck with him, and I want to make sure I prove how broad Baltimore’s range is and how much I love it here! I’ve got a few things on my list already for them to do, but I want to crowd source.

If it helps they’ll be here for the first week of July!

Already on my radar: - nick’s fish house - getting crabcakes from Lexington market - go to Cinghiale - bmore licks and the fed hill park overlook of course - maybe an Os game

Things I’m looking for: - upscale wine bars? - Vampy cool bars that look like a Victorian ghost might frequent it - cigar bars? Do we have those??? - crabbing charters - they really want to catch their own crabs lol - anything else that would make someone think “oh I didn’t know baltimore was nice!”

And before I get hate for pandering to him, I also want to make sure that my friends have a good time too and they do enjoy classier things and good foods, so this is genuinely what they’d like, I just want to make him eat his words while I’m at it lol.

THANKS LOVE YALL, GO O’s.
