Suburban House re-opens in Pikesville!      Margaret Rome's "Kitchen" is Back!

It was a bad night a year ago when my "kitchen" burned down. The fire was not at my house, but at the restaurant that served as our kitchen away from home. My "Kitchen" Burned Down! Baltimore, Md.

But now my kitchen is open again! They've added things to the menu, and they've moved to a new location that is bright and colorful and has loads of parking. We still felt right at home!Suburban House Canopy and Entrance

The New S&H has lots of Parking!

Even though the official reopening hasn't been celebrated yet, I been twice already . The Suburban House still has the same ownership and our favorite server, Mitzu, was there to greet us.

It has always been true that I see at least one or two people I know at Suburban House, and this time was no exception. Plus, our next-table neighbor was a delightful visitor from Georgia named Jim Silverman. Turned out Jim represents the company that sells some of the delicious meats they serve at Suburban House. He got a bowl of Suburban House's famous matzo ball soup and pronounced it "great!"

It was a day for several celebrations. Besides the good food – check out those onion rings and our sandwiches – Peg was celebrating a fantastic review of her Cat Lover's Book of Days that appeared in the Summer 2010 issue of Healthy Pet magazine. She says that, thanks to that review, she's had a lot of sales, both directly and through Amazon.com. You can read the review on her website.

It's such a relief to have my "kitchen" back. During these first few weeks at the new location they are limiting the hours. They are open 7 days a week, closing at 6:00PM. Hint..If you  arrive by 6pm you can stay and enjoy dinner with no rush.

Margaret, having had my kitchen burn down a few years ago, I can totally relate. (I was moved to blog about it also). Like yours, mine came back.)

Suburban House looks like a great place.  I bet they appreciate you as much as you appreciate them!

Hi Margaret!  I remember this and how exciting that they're re-built and are re-opening!  Love the photos and I'm sure they love you for this wonderful free ad too!

Have a wonderful weekend...

I remember when your kitchen burned down. Happy to hear that it's back. Too many small businesses don't have insurance to recover after a disaster.

Margaret, losing your "kitchen" was terrible. How many people lose theirs and they never return! You are one lucky lady to have them back and with the same people. I could use one of those omlettes this am. Happy Saturday!

Margaret, it is hard when your "kitchen" is not available!    I know I frequent a few places, as a single person, it is just easier to eat out, plus you have one boxes for those quick nights!    The food looks YUMMY!

June, Whenever you are in the neighborhood, let's grab a bite together.

Hi Margaret, Nice to hear that your kitchen is back and it is certainly no surprise that that when you visit, that you know at least a few of the patrons. But I would bet that even if you didn't know them when you arrived, you would by the time they leave. A wonderful post and lots of great photos. You should post this on the ActiveRainPhotoBlogger group.
