A Sandwich a Day: The Corned Beef on Rye at Attman's Delicatessen in Baltimore, MD
Attman's, located in Baltimore's Corned Beef Row, bills itself as a real Lower East Side-style New York Jewish delicatessen. The atmosphere and attitude are spot on. The service is gruff and fast-paced—you'd better know what you want before you start talking to the deli man. After I ordered my corned beef on rye, I jumped in with a last-minute decision: "I'll have a hot dog too, please."Baltimore: Last Season to Visit the Famous Obrycki's Crab House
Obrycki's Crab House has been since 1944, but this is the last season you'll be able to get your crab on (whether snow crab, Dungeness crab, or their famous hard-shell blue crabs) at the Baltimore institution. Over the years, the ownership has changed as did the location (in 1986 they moved across the street), but current owner Rob Cernak decided to close after a death in the family. You have until November 5th to walk in and still hear the sound of mallets striking crab shells.Food Network Cancels 'Ace of Cakes'

"I was being really careful, taking only one bite of everything, but you don't have to know differential calculus to realize that comes out to 20 bites of insanely rich and serious delicious food." All week I've exhibited what I consider to be great self-control, and I fear it's going to come to naught. My interim daily weigh-ins have not been encouraging, and I don't know why. Perhaps I need to reflect more carefully on what I really did eat this week? Last Saturday we headed to Baltimore for the weekend for a friend's surprise birthday party. We spent that afternoon wandering around the city. It was really fun and mostly not food-related, though I did have a few bites...Photo of the Day: Duff Goldman's Stack-of-Books Cake

Editor's note: New York Times best-selling novelist Laura Lippman, author of the upcoming Another Thing to Fall, is passionate about all aspects of Baltimore life, including food. In fact, having read all her books, I can tell you that her characters eat in all the best places in Baltimore. So when I asked Laura to become a Serious Eats Baltimore correspondent, she graciously agreed. Laura travels frequently promoting her books, so I have a feeling she might be filing dispatches from all over the globe. —Ed Levine WORDS BY LAURA LIPPMAN | I've had some reason to think about reviews lately. A good friend, one with a palate far superior to mine, didn't like Cinghiale, the latest addition to Cindy...Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
