Fine Dining in Baltimore

For our one year anniversary, Jenny and I dined at Charleston on Saturday night. By far the most expensive meal either of us have ever eaten, but easily the best dining experience as well. So many dining experiences seem focused on a loose combination of quantity and quality - at the conclusion of the meal, one measure of satisfaction is often, "am I so full that I have trouble getting up from the table and leaving the restaurant?" It's rare that a satisfying meal is purely the result of the exquisite quality of the food, and has nothing to do with quantity. This was one of those rare moments. I sincerely doubt that there is a finer restaurant anywhere in the Baltimore area.
