Best places for Baltimore "ghettocentric" foods (half n' half, chickenboxes and chessefish sammiches) (neighborhood, food)

Arnold Palmer = Half N' Half Baltimore style. But real Arnold Palmer is not made with kool aid packets like most of these ghetto establishments that sell to ghetto residents.

Yeah, like that dude in another thread who upchucked after eating some bad lamb on a visit to Baltimore. But he tried to put down the whole city afterwards...

And just how would you know what most ghetto residents are consuming? Since you disdain them so much on other threads, I thought you tended to keep away from them.

Still hoping for an answer on what "cheesefish" is. If it's a filet o' fish kind of thing, I'm looking for that myself. Sterling Seafood does a pretty good fried fish sandwich, that's the best I've found so far. Find it bizarre that it's "ghetto" food, though, it's pretty mainstream. McDonald's, ffs.

I read that as "chess-a-fish", like a play on Chesapeake. but I could be wrong.

Some of these bodegas and corner stores sell what is called a "cheesefish sandwich or sub." Depending on the establishment, some spots use fillet fish (usually whiting, lake trout or tilapia). You can have it fried or chopped with lettuce, tomatoes, mayo and hots.
