Chipotle to open first food court location in Columbia
Chipotle is opening its first restaurant at a mall's food court June 30 at The Mall in Columbia. It will be next to McDonald's and Fast Wok. The eatery is located in other malls across the country, but usually as a stand-alone store on a parcel adjacent to a mall or inside a mall with its own outside entrance and seating area. Chipotle, which uses organic meats and condiments in its burritos, tacos and salads, has 13 other locations in the Baltimore area.

Former Rosecroft owner in talks to buy track
FORT WASHINGTON - An attorney for the former owner of Rosecroft Raceway says the Greenbelt-area developer is in talks to buy the now-bankrupt harness racing track. Gerald Evans, an attorney advising Mark Vogel in negotiations, says the president of Mark Vogel Cos. LLC has been meeting with representatives of the raceway and the thoroughbred industry for about two months to discuss a sale. Vogel bought Rosecroft in 1987, and Cloverleaf Enterprises Inc., which filed for bankruptcy earlier this month, bought Rosecroft in 1995.
