[quote=Anonymous]For teens, I would do Hampden as others mentioned and the Baltimore Museum of Art nearby. It has one of the best Matisse/Cezanne collections on the east coast as well as an interesting Contemporary section. The sculpture garden is nice and there is a lovely restaurant, Gertrude’s, if you want to have drinks or early dinner by the fountain.

In Hampden, there’s a crazy donut shop, the Charmery for ice cream, tons of fun restaurants.

If you’re downtown, the water taxi, Fells Point (check out Thames Street Oysters for lobster rolls and amazing seafood), the National Aquarium. Pitango Gelato is good in FP too. I would probably spend the morning doing the Aquarium — and don’t skip the rainforest section, teens might enjoy seeing the sloths and parrots — and head to the harbor/FP area for lunch. If you don’t like seafood there is Japanese-owned ramen down there that my friends from Tokyo loved. For something fancier, sit on the water at Loch Bar or one of the other restaurants at Four Seasons. The Charleston was recently profiled in NYT and is doing food to go.

If you do the afternoon up in Hampden/BMA area, check out Woodberry Kitchen or La Cuchara for dinner. Beautiful loft spaces in the old mill neighborhood with fire pits and outdoor dining. You’d definitely need a reservation.[/quote]
