(As of July 1 , 2020, Carpe DC Food Tours has rebranded as Blue Fern Travel!)

Carpe DC Food Tours kicks off March with our new Baltimore Fells Point Food Tour, giving you an inside look at the fascinating history and food culture of one of America’s most exciting food destinations. We sat down with our own Scott Gilbert, a Baltimore local, to get his favorite picks for eating your way through the Charm City.

Baltimore’s Food Scene

Baltimore is a city with a fascinating history only a stone’s throw from DC, offering everything from quirky neighborhoods to a bustling seaport. Maryland’s largest city has always been famous for its first-class crabs. But these days, with an increasingly diverse culinary scene, Baltimore is rapidly turning into one of the USA’s top destinations for food lovers. 

“We have some of the best eateries you can find anywhere,” Scott says. “Baltimore is the ideal city for people who consider themselves foodies and who’d like to learn more about history too.”

Scott was instrumental in developing Carpe DC’s new Fells Point Tour in Baltimore. “I was actually in Denver with a couple of friends, and we went on a food tour. And it actually just got me thinking about the unique regions of Baltimore. There’s a lot of variety to Baltimore, and I wanted to share it with people.”

When we met Scott, we knew he was a perfect fit for Carpe! He laid out his favorite Baltimore spots for us the first time we met, and now he’d like to share them with you. Let’s get started.
