Posts on local foodie sites seem to fall into about four categories, excluding positive/negative reviews.
1. I’m looking for a particular kind of restaurant, please recommend.
2. Remember that awesome restaurant from long ago and how amazing it was?
3. Why hasn’t that new restaurant opened yet?
4. When is Taco Bell re-opening???
Yes, the laments from languishing locals over the temporary closure of Columbia’s lone Taco Bell have practically become a category unto themselves. Their fierce loyalty perplexes me; I’m not a Taco Bell fan. Still, their passion cannot be denied.
In honor of these devoted folks, I’m happy to announce that this Wednesday will officially bring their season of deprivation to a close.
Hey everyone! Your local Taco Bell GM here! Excited to say we are back to open this Wednesday, October 30th. Please stop by and check out our brand new building! Hope to see you guys soon!

Lest you think that all is now right with the world, there remains the matter of the ongoing closure of the Costco Food Court to worry about. Inquiring minds want to know.

From yesterday’s flurry of the local HoCo shopping recommendations, two indie bookstores received multiple mentions.
New on the scene, Queen Takes Book in Columbia has many fans. And, in Ellicott City, Backwater Books is also a local favorite. Both businesses do more than sell books. I’ve been fascinated by the creative ways that Queen Takes Book is collaborating with other businesses and participating in local initiatives. Backwater Books and the onsite Bibliopub host events, musical evenings and book clubs.
Keep sending me your local HoCo recommendations!
