Several restaurants in and around Baltimore have closed, including Langermann’s in Canton, Colette in Station North and Christopher Daniel in Timonium.

Colette, a French restaurant in Station North, closed May 28, just over a year after it opened. But posts on its social media pages indicated that there are changes ahead for both Colette and its sister restaurant, Bottega. “We are going on a little summer break beginning this Monday,” a May 26 post on Colette’s Facebook page read. “We will remain closed for some renovations around the house and will announce a reopening date soon with more details to follow.”

Colette opened in February 2016 at 1709 N. Charles St. with seating for about 75. Bottega, a BYOB, opened a block away in 2013. Both are owned by chef Adrien Aeschliman.

Langermann’s in Canton also closed Memorial Day weekend after filing for bankruptcy twice in the past two years. The restaurant, located in the Can Company building at 2400 Boston St., opened in 2009 serving lowcountry cuisine. Its last day in business was May 28. Langermann’s filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2015 and again in 2016 in an effort to restructure its debt. In 2015, the restaurant owed $1.05 million. The owners said their business took a hit that year as a result of the riots following Freddie Gray’s death.

Mark Lasker and David McGill were partners in the restaurant.

And Christopher Daniel has shuttered after 12 years of business in Timonium. The restaurant at 106 W. Padonia Road opened in 2005 with the slogan, “Come casual, dine fine.” Signs on the restaurant have said for weeks that the restaurant is closed for a “private event.” Five, a martini bar adjacent to Christopher Daniel, has also closed.

In brief

Shipyard Pub is under construction at 3500 O’Donnell St., the former home of Lears II, where it’s on track to open in September. Aaron Hammons and Sam Wyatt, childhood friends, are partnering on the project. Wyatt, who will serve as the pub’s general manager, has worked in the restaurant industry for 20 years and run establishments including Davis’ Pub in Annapolis and Obrycki’s in Baltimore/Washington International Airport. Hammons has a background in government contracting.

“The community bar and restaurant has always been a dream of mine,” Hammons said. Through Shipyard Pub, they said they hope to create a community-centered bar with a “Prohibition theme.” Shipyard will offer fresh, local pub fare, with a bar program focused on bourbon and rum.

Iron Rooster has added Drew Adams, a Washington, D.C., chef, as director of culinary operations. Adams is new menus hit the restaurants this week at its locations in Annapolis, Canton and Hunt Valley. While he’s keeping customer favorites, like Iron Rooster’s homemade Pop-Tart-style pastries, Adams is adding more seafood and regional Chesapeake dishes to the menu. He’s also working to expand dinner offerings.

Adams previously worked as executive sous chef at Rose’s Luxury, and sous chef at the Michelin-starred restaurant The Dabney. He’s also worked in the kitchens of Marcel’s and Plume in the Jefferson Hotel.

A fourth Iron Rooster at McHenry Row in Locust Point is expected to open in August.
