Baltimore Winter Restaurant Week 2013: The Dogwood Restaurant


Restaurant week is always a great time to try something you've never tried before. My first excursion for restaurant week: The Dogwood Restaurant in Hampden. The food is sustainable and delectable. The Dogwood strives to use locally grown organic food for their eclectic American eatery. It's a warm atmosphere with great vibes. You can feel the wonderful spirit of the place as soon as you walk in. "The Dogwood’s social mission is to transform lives one plate at a time by providing training opportunity and paid employment to individuals who are transitioning from addiction, incarceration, homelessness, and/or underemployment." 


I tried the Baltimore Crap Soup and the Mango Chicken Salad Sandwich. Both fresh and equally delicious. The sandwich was served on sunflower seed bread with mango and curry spiced chicken salad and baby spinach; an unusual, yet perfect combination. 

A place that good for stomach, good for your wallet, and good for your soul? Don't mind if I do and you should too!
