Table Talk

S everal of the restaurants in the new Park Place in Annapolis are national chains, but not the recently opened Carpaccio Tuscan Kitchen and Wine Bar (1 Park Place, 410-268-6569), which features northern Italian food and 40 Italian wines by the glass, as well as some 150 bottles. Carpaccio is part of a local restaurant group, which used to include Cafe Mezzenotte in Severna Park and now consists of a number of casual Italian-themed restaurants like Sazzio, Squisito's and Pomo Grille and the Four Seasons Grille in Gambrills. Carpaccio's menu includes six different kinds of carpaccio and personal pizzas from the wood-burning oven. Dinner entrees run from $15.99 for pasta Bolognese to $32.99 for black linguine with calamari, lobster tail and prawns. The executive chef and partner is Gennaro di Benedetto.

Driven to stay safe on the road

In 1953, K. Dale Williams Sr. bought a new Plymouth for $1,975. That was a wince-worthy sum back then, but Williams remembers cringing even more when he was offered - for $13 more - a handy-dandy little gadget called a turn signal.

'It was an option back then, turn signals,' Williams, 77, said. 'And back-up lights.'

Over the years, Williams has learned that turn signals are far from optional; they're vital. As are such good driving practices as checking mirrors and blind spots before moving an inch, merging smoothly and safely, and adhering to the three-second rule when following another car.

Night lights

Outdoor living once meant a grill, sticky webbed chairs, a crackling boom box and maybe a floodlight - a concept that has since morphed into a sophisticated outdoor kitchen, soft furniture and a fire pit to chase away the late-season chill.

But with the expansion of cocooning, outdoor rooms and backyard entertaining now means good music and lighting are as much a part of the mood-making and fun of these living spaces as is the food.

'Instead of traveling as much, you find more folks are staying home. And in doing so, they want to give their property that resort feel and make it a little sanctuary,' said Joe Caudill, whose Caudill Luminations and Specialties in Gambrills installs outdoor lighting and sound.

Hospital site up for development

The state government is shopping for a tenant to develop 559 acres of the former Crownsville Hospital Center, dashing the hopes of county officials who wanted control of the site and stirring the concerns of neighbors that the community's landscape will be drastically altered.

Interested developers have until June 30 to respond to a request sent out by the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, which has controlled the property since the state-run psychiatric hospital closed in 2004.
