EASTON
The Flour Shop
A charming new bakery brings artisanal breads, cakes and pastries to the heart of Easton. Run by Bluepoint Hospitality, The Flour Shop occupies a historic brick building that, coincidently, once housed a flower shop. Along with baguettes, various sourdoughs, focaccia, rye and pumpernickel baked daily, patrons can treat themselves to a bevy of pastries (top), from rugelach to croissants. 115 N.

CATONSVILLE
Fishmonger’s Daughter
This hot spot marks the latest chapter in a five-generation story. Members of the Faidley family—renowned for the crab cakes served at their 140-year-old raw bar in Baltimore’s Lexington Market—have opened a new restaurant. Located in a 1925 building that once housed a gourmet grocer, Fishmonger’s Daughter serves an array of fresh-caught seafood including pan-roasted rockfish—and crab cakes, of course.
