hampden restaurants

Husband-wife duo, Chefs Debi Bell and Michael Matassa, owners of highly popular, ALCHEMY, in Hampden, exclusively share with CITYPEEK exciting news about plans of opening a second restaurant, ALCHEMY Elements, in their native Harford County this Summer.

Robbin Haas called me recently to tell me the good news that he is opening a new spot in Hampden called Birroteca in the space formally the Mill Steakhouse at 1520 Clipper Road. The new space will serve organic, artisinal small Italian plates, Chef Robbin tells me. Currently he is seeking a General Manager and a Bar Manager who is adept in the workd of Craft Beer and whose title might be more appropriately called, Beer Geek.. Twenty-four beers are to be expected to be poured as this is a Beer-oteca, not a Vino-teca.
