Dempsey's Brew Pub and Restaurant, the warehouse joint at Camden Yards, had a different working title: Catch 24. There was just one problem that catchy name, a mash-up of "Catch 22" and former Oriole Rick Dempsey's uniform number. "People heard 'catch' and thought it was a seafood restaurant," said Joshua Distenfeld, executive chef at Camden Yards. Out went Catch 24. (Kenneth K. Lam, Baltimore Sun /April 4, 2012)
Delmarva's Southern Cafe is set to open Friday in Canton. The new comfort food restaurant, located in the Harbor Enterprise Center, also known as the Broom Factory, will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. And they will serve breakfast at dinner, if you get my drift.
On the menu - biscuit sandwiches, baked cheese skillets, country-fried rib eye, cheesy shrimp and grits, burgers and Tenderjack's chicken tenders, a specialty at Tenderjack's, the Virginia-based restaurants Delmarva's owners, Paul Stratmeyer and David Levitt, have a share in.
Levitt was an owner of the Tenderjack’s in Leesburg, Va., with two other partners. He and Stratmeyer bought the Tenderjack’s brand from the remaining partners to form Delmarva's Southern Cafe. They will be converting the Tenderjack's in Leesburg to a Delmarva's Southern Cafe, and a Delmarva's Southern Cafe and Taphouse, featuring locally crafted beer and wine - is set to open in October in Sterling, Va. with additional Taphouses scheduled for Arlington and Quantico in 2013.
