Make your reservations NOW! Harbor Magic Catering and award winning Executive Chef Bryan Sullivan, CEC, are hosting the “Best of Baltimore” Food and Wine Dinner this coming Saturday, March 5th at the Pier 5 Hotel Ballroom.

For me, what constitutes a great food and wine event are top-notched chefs and restaurateurs, a great menu and a good value for the dollar. This has all three.
