I recently had the pleasure of discovering another Baltimore hidden treasure. Sunday brunch at Captain Larry's on Fort Ave. A very tiny corner bar with just a few tables and some bar seats. Cash ONLY but does have an ATM on the inside - convenient!

Our party kicked the morning off right with booze! Can't beat the $3 bloodies (Spicy or not) and Mimosas - both of which you could taste the booze- NICE!

If you are a local football fan you will recognize the names of many of their dishes:
Todd Heap O'Pancakes, Kelly Greggnog French Toast, Suggs Slider Package [2 Fried Egg English Muffin Sammies each topped with Cheese & choice of Bacon or Turkey Sausage served with Home Fries, add a burger] etc... our group tried on a few staple dishes as well as daily specials.

Brunchos- or these days - Totos - Tater Tots topped with Scrambled Eggs, Black Beans, choice of Bacon or Chorizo, melted Cheese, Avocado & Pico de Gallo served with Sour Cream & fresh Salsa - Talk about a heart attack in a bowl - this was good enough to satisfy our 6ft+ dining companion w/o a problem.

House made Quiche of the day- Mushroom and Brie served with a side Caesar salad topped with fried tortellini.

Pancakes of the day were Blueberry - couldn't resist had to order a side order of 1 - yes, they not only allow it but encourage it. Served smothered in good BOURBON Syrup. It was like dessert with breakfast.

Special of the day - Breakfast Cheesesteak sub- with whiz! served with housecut fries.

This is only just the beginning. For the faint of heart of they always offered scrambled egg whites, salad, or soup of the day. Average menu prices are $8.

Trust me you won't go hungry or broke at this special corner bar. In case you were concerned - they DO have highchairs for the kiddies. So, do not hesitate - make Captain Larry's your next Sunday hot spot.
