Not much action lately on this board, so maybe I can stir some up. We're contemplating a possible move from Rockville to Frederick. One of the downsides is that we are used to so many good restaurants to choose from around here. Does anyone have any favorite restaurants in Ferderick? I realize there is an abundance of chain restaurants, but there look like no shortage of interesting small restaurants in the downtown area and I'm hoping there are some gems nestled in the strip malls here and there or even in the countryside (I know Stone Manor near Middletown is a winner, albeit an expensive one reserved for special occasions). Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks! Noah

A couple of years ago an acquaintance took me to an all-you-can-eat buffet somewhere near Frederick or perhaps the Camp David area, I am not quite sure. Someone reading this message may know what I am taking about. I don't remember the name of the place, but I recall that I enjoyed the visit. The place was huge and had a certain historical air about it, with photos of visiting dignitaries on the walls and all that. Nevertheless, it had a down-to-earth atmosphere as well. The staff was friendly (what do you want to drink, hon?) and cheerful. If I could find out the name of the place, I am sure I will visit it again. -- Rouben Rostamian

Hmmm.. this thread seemed to die mighty quickly. I wonder if the DC dining regulars have found other forums where people post more frequently. Anyway, thanks for the reminder about the Cozy, I had forgotten that one. If anyone has restaurants they like in Frederick proper, feel free to chime in.

Between e-gullet and chowhound, yes, I rarely look here. "Hawknoah" <hawknoah@comcast.net> wrote in message news:_u-dnS14psQ_PJHfRVn-2g@comcast.com... > Hmmm.. this thread seemed to die mighty quickly. I wonder if the DC dining > regulars have found other forums where people post more frequently. >

If >anyone has restaurants they like in Frederick proper, feel free to chime in. Waooogahhhh. Waoooghaaaah. (Klaxon sound.) Frederick Dining, eh? I'll be glad to share seven years of pinching my arm to make sure I'm not dreaming, laughing till I'm short on air, staring with open mouthed incredulity, and smiling with hedonistic pleasure about the food in and around Frederick, tomorrow morning when I have the time to write. :-) Adam -- Adam Finkelstein adamfATradixDOTnet

It recently re-opened after a long renovation and is now quite upscale, but worth it. http://www.thecomusinn.com/menu.htm Tom
