Scotch eggs at Diamondback Tavern - Tamar Alexia Fleishman
Ellicott City has a new tavern in town, but don’t assume it’s the same-old, same-old. Diamondback Tavern (www.diamondbacktavern.com ) actually has the ability to satisfy four different kinds of customers: there’s a bar area that serves the full menu, a subdued and chic (decorated with photos by local art students) dining room for date night or family time, a sports bar upstairs, and even a stately venue room complete with working brick fireplace. The overall theme-vision of the place is to create a tavern in their historic building on Columbia Pike (just off historic Main Street) and serve traditional comfort/tavern foods (English-Scottish) with a true Maryland accent. Diamondback Tavern is just a few months old, owned by a trio of young Howard County natives and even their chef is a Howard County native. Of the trio, Lee Biars is the manager, and he is passionate about getting local purveyors for all their food. Even the meat for the meatloaf comes from up the street in Oella. Also, unlike your typical tavern where things go straight from the freezer to the fry pan, the emphasis at Diamondback Tavern is fresh and homemade. That means the gravies, the stocks, the dressings… even the mustards!
