The downtown College Park MD scene recently got a huge upgrade with MilkBoy ArtHouse, a new restaurant and performance venue. No more Italian Gardens, The Cellar or Terrapin Station in this spot on Route 1! Every time I go back to Maryland, we drive around the U of Maryland campus and College Park, to see …

Marathon Deli is one of my favorite restaurants in College Park MD. This tiny family-owned restaurant serves up huge flavors with Greek food and subs.
