Here are the top three stories today in Catonsville:

1. Korean barbecue is a wildly popular dish (and it's easy to see why). With so many places popping up around Maryland, it might be hard to choose which one to try. Luckily, one of the best Korean barbecue restaurants is right here in Catonsville. The John Hopkins News-Letter has hailed Iron Age for its extensive menu and reasonable prices. To see the full list of the best local Korean barbecue, visit the link. (The Johns Hopkins News-Letter)
2. Ready for Thanksgiving, but still stuck on dessert? Instead of toiling away in the kitchen, many residents from the area are opting for fresh-baked pies from local shops. Three Catonsville bakeries made the list of recommended places to buy Thanksgiving pies. Click the link to find out if your favorites are on there. (Subscription: Baltimore Magazine)
3. On Tuesday, a car crashed into a Catonsville bakery off of Baltimore National Pike. Happy Hour Panaderia at the Westpark Shopping Mall experienced extensive damage after a silver Toyota crashed through the glass into the store. Owners expect to be closed for at least 10 days while they work on repairs. No one was injured in the crash. (wmar2news.com)
