Baltimore is a city of neighborhoods and food is an important distinction between them. In Downtown, it's all about choices. Your options range from contemporary American fare to steakhouses to Brazilian cuisine. Little Italy, of course, has great Italian food. For fresh seafood, the Inner Harbor's Rusty Scupper has provided great, a casual elegant atmosphere, and a beautiful view of the Harbor for more than 30 years.
Downtown Baltimore is a walking neighborhood with many opportunities to visit entertainment and cultural venues. The water taxis across the harbor are a fun way to spend an afternoon in good weather. Expect to see many tourists year-round at the Inner Harbor, but especially in the summer. During the school year, the Port Discovery Children's museum is a magnet for school trips, as is the Maryland Science Center and the National Aquarium. If you want to walk your way around those sites, you will see lots of children. If you are walkabout on Friday mid-day from June to November, you will get to enjoy the Fresh Friday Farmer's Market. The market is open from 10am to 2pm.
The largest indoor venue in Baltimore is in the Downtown neighborhood, Royal Farms Arena. Here on a Friday night you can enjoy various entertainment options, from singers to indoor soccer. If you're interested in grabbing a meal or drink instead, there are dozens of places to go do that within every cuisine and price level.
The perfect Baltimore Sunday must be in the spring and summer when the Baltimore Farmers' Market and Bazaar is open between 7am until Noon. All vendors make what they sell and you can find just about anything here. Hopefully the Orioles are in town and you can head over to Camden Yards to catch a day game. Afterward, head back to the Inner Harbor for dinner overlooking the water.
