Health, I am vegetarian, not vegan. Baltimore has many good quality kosher restaurants. They did not affect my decision to become vegetarian.
jbaldy, my husband’s friends did not go to Schlangers. My husband is not from Baltimore. My friend’s husband, on the other hand, went to Schlangers probably about five years ago. Has it really changed so dramatically in five years?
Also, Umami (not Yumami) has a nicer atmosphere, better menu, really good cocktails, and all around better food than David Chu’s (not David Schu’s). I like David Chu’s, too, but Umami is definitely superior and well worth the higher prices.
