Miss Shirley's Cafe, Inner Harbor

Crowds flock here for the decadent eats that reflect the Southern-inspired vision of late owner Eddie Dopkin (his son continues the dream). Guy favors Chef Brigitte Bledsoe’s French toast: Slabs of challah bread come stuffed with a rich coconut filling made from a mascarpone-and-cream-cheese base. Prefer something savory? Try the Southern Slammer Sandwich featuring fried green tomato, applewood-smoked bacon, mashed avocado, cheddar and a fried egg piled on pumpernickel bread.
