NEVER GET A CRAB CAKE FROM ANYWHERE
OTHER THAN MARYLAND.
Crab cakes are pretty much my favorite food on the whole entire face of the planet. So I decided one day last summer that I needed to find the perfect crab cake. Everywhere I went out to eat that summer, I ordered crab cakes if they were on the menu. I went a lot of places over the summer. And you know what I discovered? If you get a crab cake from any state besides Maryland, it is guaranteed to suck. Delaware? Sucked. New York? Sucks. Massachusetts? Sucks. Need I go on?
The best place to get a crab cake, in my opinion, is Cap'n John's. They have the most delicious seafood there it's not even funny. Worst place? Anywhere in New York. That is the one place that I most strongly advise you against ever even thinking about getting a crab cake.
What caused me to go on this crab cake rant was my lunch today. Today I went to New York City to see the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall. The show was great. Lunch? Not so much. I got two "Maryland" crab cakes. Worst mistake ever. When I took a bite, I wasn't even sure if there were crabs in it. Nasty.
So, in summary, if you're not in Maryland, avoid crab cakes.
