Farmstead Shack – Baltimore Magazine https://www.baltimoremagazine.com The Best of Baltimore Since 1907 Tue, 04 Aug 2020 11:45:59 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/cropped-favicon-32x32.png Farmstead Shack – Baltimore Magazine https://www.baltimoremagazine.com 32 32 Farmstead Shack is Ready To Go https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/section/fooddrink/farmstead-shack-is-ready-to-go/ Thu, 17 Jul 2014 10:53:00 +0000 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/?p=67690 Continued]]> Good morning, Baltimore!

The early hours just got a little easier with the opening of Farmstead Shack, a new grab-and-go kiosk, which opened this week in Canton. 

Farmstead Shack is the cute, casual cousin to Farmstead Grill, the newest fine-dining establishment in Canton Crossing from the talented Galen Sampson (formerly of Hampden’s The Dogwood).

The breakfast menu, featuring breakfast biscuits (the Virginia biscuit with ham, eggs, brie, and caramelized shallot-apple chutney speaks to us), steel-cut oats with almond milk, cinnamon, flax and pumpkin seeds, house-made granola, and fresh-pressed juices offers something for everyone.

Lunch includes a selection of inventive, upmarket house-made dogs and brats and entrée-sized salads sourced from local farms, as well as a beer and wine list with non-alcoholic choices, including a selection of vegan smoothies. (Bring on the Summertime Peach with peaches, blueberries, orange zest, basil, almond milk, wheat germ, and banana!)

While the Shack is primarily geared for carry-out orders, there’s also a small seating area for outdoor dining. 

Sources tell us that happy hour, lawn parties, and snow cones are still to come.

]]> Dogwood’s Chef/Owner Lands at New Restaurant https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/section/fooddrink/dogwoods-chef-owner-lands-at-new-restaurant/ Mon, 07 Oct 2013 09:30:00 +0000 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/?p=66049 Continued]]> The talented chef Galen Sampson, who operated The Dogwood in Hampden
off and on for seven years, will be the chef at Farmstead Grill in
Canton. The restaurant and a companion kiosk, Farmstead Shack, are set
to open in spring 2014.

The 200-seat Farmstead Grill and the 30-seat carryout are part of The Shops at Canton Crossing, anchored by stores like Target and Michaels arts and crafts store and where Mission BBQ is opening today. Greektown’s Samos is scheduled to open a branch there, too.

Farmstead Grill will be offering a locally sourced menu at affordable prices, according to a press release.

Sampson, who won rave reviews when he headed the kitchen at Harbor
Court Hotel, spent recent months as an apprentice team leader on an
800-acre farm in Charlottesville, VA, working with farmers and learning
how to utilize local produce more effectively.

His restaurant, The Dogwood, closed last March.

The new Canton restaurant is owned by Charles Nabit and Michael Klein
of Mission-Driving Dining II, which opened Waterfront Kitchen in Fells
Point two years ago.

This is great news. I’m really excited that Sampson will be cooking in Baltimore again.
