COLUMBIA, MD — A popular eatery based in Delaware has plans to open an additional location, possibly in Columbia. Warren Rosenfeld, founder and majority owner of the Rosenfeld's Jewish Deli brand, and the Big Fish Restaurant Group, operated by Founder Eric Sugrue, recently announced the formation of Rosenfeld's Expansion Partners, LLC, a new company that allows Rosenfeld to expand beyond the 17 restaurants in Delaware under the guidance of Big Fish Restaurant Group. Hank Rosenberg, the present and long-serving chief operating officer of Hospitality at Harrington Raceway and Casino, helped negotiate the deal and now is also a shareholder in the new venture.

Big Fish Restaurant Group will operate and manage all new Rosenfeld's locations opened by the new venture. The first location being eyed is in Wilmington, but Columbia also is on the short list for a future location, along with Annapolis, Baltimore and Washington, D.C., Rosenfeld shared on the company's website.

Rosenfeld will continue to own and operate his current locations in Rehoboth Beach, Del., Ocean City, Md., and at the Salisbury, Md., airport.
