Chef pals For more information: Aarón Sánchez wheretraveler.com & John Besh Teaming Up Johnny Sánchez (page 29), a collaboration of former Iron Chef contestants John Besh and Aaron Sánchez, marries farm-fresh ingredients to authentic Mexican fare inspired by the street food of Guadalajara. The two describe their new venture as a “spirited taque- ria,” a social setting with live Latin music, views overlooking the city and dishes for shar- ing like the signature tostados (think blue crab and roast pumpkin). Sánchez, a Chopped (Food Network) judge, serves time-tested Mexican dishes like his grandmother’s Cabrito tacos (slow-roasted goat), while Beard-winner Besh adds New Orleans fl air and a love of local sourcing. A private tasting room pours mezcals and tequilas.—Rachel Chism
Fiery Fieri “The Mayor of Flavortown” returns to Baltimore, a favorite site of his Food Network episodes, with the new Maryland-inspired Guy Fieri’s Baltimore Kitchen and Bar (page 28). The restaurant nods to the city’s “diners, drive-ins and dives” with a casual menu of Ameri- can favorites, unique fl avors and quirky platings. Fieri celebrates a love of the Chesapeake with dishes like the B-More fries (left) and

A New Stage The latest indication that Baltimore’s a theater town? The September 15 opening of spiffy downtown digs for Chesapeake Shakespeare Company. At the ribbon-cutting (actually sword-slashing) ceremony, guests got a first glimpse of the retrofitted 1885 bank building that retains its carved ceiling and Corinthian columns. But formality’s not the rule here. The troupe, known for outdoor shows in nearby Ellicott City, aims for accessibility, even breaking the “fourth wall” to engage audiences. See page 34.—BS

Canton Square
On the Square Once the plantation of ship captain John O’Donnell and later a blue-collar industrial zone, Canton now draws crowds to its shops, bars and restaurants, many clustered around the main square. Local favorites here include Mama’s on the Half Shell for Chesapeake Bay bounty, Looney’s and Claddagh for Irish-accented pub grub and Tavern on the Square for American fare with 80-plus craft brews. Vaccaro’s Italian Pastry Shop satisfies a sweet tooth with cannoli and tiramisu, while 2910 on the Square offers souvenirs like bricks and wood panels hand-painted with iconic city scenes.—Brooke Sabin
