Baltimore EmporiYUM.

I traveled to Baltimore last weekend and peeked into the EmporiYUM, a food festival that celebrates local eateries.It’s always great to see the DMV come together in a collaborative effort, especially for a food-filled event. maketto1351dc​ passed free Taiwanese buns, Luke’s Lobsters sold their highly-acclaimed rolls and Birroteca created unique drinks perfect for all taste buds.If you came in early for VIP, you received a gift bag with samples that weren’t at the event along with no lines. Come early admission though, the warehouse became packed within a few minutes and the crowd didn’t seem to stop until it was nearing general admission time. There was a wait time for every both, but you could definitely make your way to every table within a few hours.Definitely check out the event if it’s in your area. You can sample a variety of foods both savory and sweet.My favorite local bite?Crunkcakes with its boozy take on a classic dessert. And yes, you’ll have to be at least 21 to try this treat.
