Hmmm, we could TRY to pick out a decent Chinese restaurant in the Baltimore/Columbia area. That could be fun, sit around a big round table and pass the entrees while chatting.
I am definitely familiar with the Columbia restaurants, but getting intel on something in the Inner Harbor area is possible too. There is a pretty decent set of cafes cheek by jowl in Columbia-Mongol/Chinese/Japanese (really) that are next door to one another.
Would meeting about a half hour before going into a restaurant be acceptable? Given travel vagaries you would want the meet window to be broad.
How many people ar we talking about here, ten? Five?

MAL Which one you figure tracked us?
ZOE The ugly one, sir.
MAL (beat) Could you be more specific?

Oh, I just meant we could hang out at somebody's house and make dumplings--that's kind of a nice party thing. I'd volunteer our place (just inside the Beltway) but it's a wreck right now 'cause we just moved in. So unless anyone else has a house they don't mind us tramping around in, I guess a restaurant would be the best way to go.
Doesn't have to be Chinese, though. They could just serve protein cake. ;)

Chinese restaurant sounds good. It will be fun.
So is everyone fine with March 20th?

So where's a good Baltimore Chinese restaurant? I know some in Rockville, MD but I'm not familiar with the Baltimore Chinese scene.
I'd recommend we find a hot pot place, but my husband'd kill me. 
I had fresh bao last night! A professional made it, but I've been taught and have bought some bao zi cookbooks, if you all want to come to our place and make some for a future shindig. We can all dress like Saffron.

Hi! I'm another MD Browncoat who's been lurking on this thread and I've lived in Columbia for a long, long time. There are quite a few Chinese and Asian restaurants in the area. Most of them are decent (although I'd have to agree that if you want great Chinese food, you have to go to Montgomery County.) The Mongolian Grill in Columbia has a really decent sized dining room that could easily handle a group of 15 or 20. If you've never had Mongolian, it's pretty neat. You get to pick your meat, veggies, and seasonings and put them in a bowl and then some guy with a big knife throws it on a super hot grill, cooks it, and gives it back to you.
Anyway, I'd love to attend a shindig lunch anywhere in MD. My name is Susan although I'm not the same Susan mentioned above. Keep this thread alive!

Incidentally, "Mongolian Barbeque" is Taiwanese. The Mongolians don't want any part of it.
That being said, it's totally awesome.
