Stanley Zerden looked through a cold rain, staring at another shuttered shop at Baltimore's Oldtown Mall, one of the city's oldest commercial districts. The corrugated metal gates were pulled down and padlocked at the China Garden and Soul Food Carryout. He was talking about the owner, Tian Zin Wang: "His is a typical story of an immigrant who came here to start a business and did quite well." Only this story ends with this line from a newspaper story published two days ago: "was shot multiple times during a robbery, police said."

Leon Nelson wore his hair in long braids. He had been all over the region, riding alongside his father, who drives a bus for a living. He once played high school football and wore a white tuxedo to his junior prom. He was one of three people shot in a Chinese carryout on New Year's Day, and after spending three hours at Maryland Shock Trauma Center, he died of his wounds - becoming the city's first homicide victim of the year. At 17, he was also the first juvenile to be killed. "He was a kid with ambitions and a lot of dreams," said Steven Montgomery, a close friend of the family.

The closing last month of the Cooksville Carryout, where local residents have sipped beer and devoured sandwiches for decades, has left many wondering what will replace the small tavern, at a prime intersection in a growing area of western Howard County.But it is not clear what will happen to the site at Routes 97 and 144, a half-mile south of Interstate 70."They'll probably try to sell to an aspiring bar owner or liquor carryout [owner] and let them try to get a license," said Bill Glasgow, a lawyer representing owners Somkid Danzer and Surachai Gosakwatana, who, facing a series of county liquor violations, surrendered their license July 14.Some residents said they hope something other than a bar takes its place.

A 28-year-old man who was on parole was charged with fatally shooting another man who was on his way to a Chinese food carryout last month in Northeast Baltimore. Allen A. Banks faces first-degree murder and handgun charges in the killing of Collin Mazyck, 24, in the 2700 block of Tivoly Ave. on Jan. 17. Detectives arrested Banks, of the 5400 block of Cedonia Ave., on Thursday. The victim's mother, Agnes Mazyck, said homicide detective Bryan Kershaw told her of the arrest Friday. "I'm just glad that they made an arrest, and I'm glad the police handled it because I wouldn't want another mother to feel the way I felt," said Mazyck, 59. Police are still trying to determine a motive in the killing and are exploring the possibility that Mazyck was robbed while he tried to buy a small amount of marijuana, authorities said.

When restaurant critic Elizabeth Large asked for favorite desserts on her dining blog (baltimoresun .com/diningatlarge), we were struck by how many people love bread pudding. We decided to try four from local restaurants. Because most of those we sampled were made in advance, we called ahead, then noted the time it took to get the dessert once we turned up at the restaurant. Linwoods 25 Crossroads Drive, Owings Mills -- 410-356-3030 Hours --Lunch: 11:30 a.m.-3 p.m. Mondays-Fridays; Dinner: 5:30 p.m.-10 p.m. Mondays-Thursdays; 5:30 p.m.-11 p.m. Fridays-Saturdays; 5 p.m.-9 p.m. Sundays In and out in --7 minutes Though tasty, this chocolate bread pudding, $8.40, was not what we expected.

With pecorino cheese, garlic sauce, chopped tomatoes and lettuce, it looked the prettiest. But there was only about half as much calamari as in the other orders.
