It’s another weekend again, and expect some awesome events, activities and delicious foods in several restaurants throughout Baltimore.

Rodlyn-mae Banting of Baltimore Magazine listed the various events over the weekend. See, drink, hear and more. Check out the events below to learn more.

EAT March 24: Pig Parts and Pancakes
Foraged, 3250 Chestnut Ave. 11 a.m.-3 p.m. Free.
Nothing says Sunday morning like the smell of fresh bacon, and this seasonal eatery’s pork confections will have you out of bed in no time. Join Foraged for its second annual walk-in-only brunch featuring pancakes, a wide variety of pig parts, farm-fresh eggs, as well as mimosas and their slightly more adventurous cousins “beermosas.” Eat fresh from the earth at this Hampden hotspot and be sure to pour some locally sapped maple and black walnut syrup over your pancakes to achieve that perfect local breakfast.
From artisan craft mead to IPAs named after revered macabre master Edgar Allen Poe, there are plenty of local beer options in Baltimore. And personally, we believe that there’s no such thing as too many breweries. This weekend, celebrate the official grand opening of Full Tilt Brewing Co. with a three-day-long bash to christen this new brewery and taproom on York Road. With new beer releases, arcade games, and live music, this Govans brewery will be a contender for your favorite hangout spot after this weekend.
SEE To March 31: B&O Best in Service
B&O Railroad Museum, 901 W. Pratt St. Free.
The B&O Railroad has always been a point of pride for our city, but, as with many chapters in history, the service of African Americans and their contributions to the railroad is largely unrecorded. Through the end of the month, visit the downtown railroad museum to take in paintings by artists Dan Content and Roy Speter that depict prominent African Americans like Thurgood Marshall and Maggie Hudson, as well as many unsung workers, who helped build arguably the most revolutionary railroad in our nation’s history.
These are indeed, really awesome events for both locals and tourists to enjoy Baltimore, drinking some beer and barbecue while watching some entertainment performances at the Harbor. There are also other restaurants that give huge discounts during weekends so be sure to check them out as well.
Jennifer of Baltimore On The Cheap also listed some of the most significant events everyone must not miss. Eat, drink, watch and be entertained. Check them all below.

The Anatomy of a Chicken Box Part 2
Ekiben and Blacksauce Kitchen are teaming up again for this pop-up, which is inspired by Baltimore’s iconic chicken box meal. The walk-up style concept, similar to a farmer’s market approach, is a mash-up of cultures with Ekiben’s Asian Fusion and Blacksauce Kitchen’s soul food cuisine. Their first pop-up, which was held in 2017, resulted in hundreds of attendees and long lines. So get there early. March 29 (hours to be determined) at Union Craft Brewing, 1700 W. 41st St., #420, Medfield. 410-467-0290 or unioncraftbrewing.com. A la carte.
