Beloved Seafood Eatery Closes + French Pastries + New BBQ: MD Business

MARYLAND — For a sweet cream latte to sip while noshing on a sweet and savory pastry, bread or donut, pop by one of two Paris Baguette Bakery-Cafes in the state. Both cafes are located in Montgomery County and the second spot just opened for business Dec. 14.

New dining coming next month to Maryland is L&L Hawaiian Barbecue, which will serve a plate lunch. Or, try restaurants you might have missed during the upcoming Harford County Restaurant Week.

If you need a little refresher, Doctor K MediSpa will celebrate its 20th anniversary soon. The spa offers Velashape III, Botox, filler and skincare products, among other services.

Meanwhile, two restaurant endeavors are closing their doors for good.
