Arturo Paz, Executive Chef, brings with him much experience as the new chef of Phillips at Harborplace. He's opened restaurants in Miami & LA and has cooked for many celebrities. Now, we are lucky to have his expertise in Charm City.
Begin with his Lounge Menu item Crab Mac & Cheese "Lollipops," they were amazing. His Lobster Corn Dogs, a fave of Drew Barrymore's, were a true indulgence. If you love fresh seafood, share the Chilled Plateau filled w/ Maine Lobster, Alaskan King Crab, Oysters, Clams, Lump Crab, Shrimp..it was seafood paradise.
The Mahi Mahi in a Green Thai Curry Sauce was the perfect entree and my friend loved her MD Crab Cakes. Comfort food? Velveeta Stuffed Meatloaf, yes, was amazing and dessert? Homemade Cinnamon Bread Pudding, incredible. GM Richard Duck recommended I try Bartender Dan Schulman's Award Winning drink, Cinn Ful Side, great choice.

Roy's Restaurant: Hawaiian Fusion Cuisine
410-659-0099
Roy's, located at 720 B Aliceanna Street in Downtown Baltimore, is one of my favorites. Chef Roy Yamaguchi founded Roy's Restaurants: there are now 30 throughout the United States, Japan and Guam. In addition, Yamaguchi hosted six seasons of a PBS Cooking Show shown on 300 stations across the United States. Roy's latest cookbook, "Roy's Fish and Seafood," is a perfect gift for any seafood lover. Yamaguchi's Hawaiian Fusion cuisine has won him the prestigious James Beard "Best Pacific Northwest Chef" award.  
Bryson Keens, Managing Partner, runs the Baltimore operations and Rey Eugenio,  Executive Chef Partner, works his magic in the kitchen, creating amazing, memorable dishes. When you visit Roy's you can't go wrong ordering any of the fresh seafood entrees that combine bold Asian spices and European sauces.

Begin your meal with the Crisped Lobster Potstickers, you may need two orders to share, as they are incredibly delicious.  My son declared Roy's Wood Grilled Szechuan Spiced Baby Back Pork Ribs the "best he has ever had." My Blackened Ahi Tuna was fresh and so beautufully presented it was a masterpiece on the plate. The signature Hawaiian Martini, featuring SKYY Vodka, Stoli Vanil and Malibu Coconut Rum infused with fresh pineapple, makes every visit to Roy's  
worthwhile. Don't forget to order the Melting Hot Chocolate Souffle' when you order your dinner as it takes time to create something that is that close to chocolate heaven. Make your reservations, treat someone special to an evening in "the  islands"... right in Downtown Baltimore.
