Top 10 Md. dining stories of the decade
I can't think of another decade while I've been restaurant critic for the Sun in which so much happened on the local dining scene. Unfortunately, much of the news involved the unexpected demise of some very important restaurants.
Although closings dominated, a lot else was going on in the aughts. (And please don't tell me the decade ends next year. You can't call 2010 an aught. It's a teen.)
Here's my list of the most important local news stories where restaurants were concerned. You may not agree. If not, please post your suggestions on Dining@Large.

1. The number of restaurants that closed directly or indirectly because of the recession
Of course, the reasons were often more complicated than just a troubled economy, but it seemed to give any number of restaurants that were trying to hang on a final push. I'm thinking of the Brass Elephant (pictured), Ixia, Bicycle, Northwoods in Annapolis, to mention just a few.
