When you go to Baltimore, you eat crab. It's just what you do.
"They" say, for the best crab experience, you should go during a month that doesn't end in R.
A few weeks ago, 7 girlfriends and I Staycationed in Baltimore for a hot summer weekend (good for crabs!) during the bicentennial Sailabration of the War of 1812.
And that's when this really delicious crabcake sandwich came into my life. Somehow, we snagged a spot at the J. Paul's bar on the water- among hoards of people visiting the Inner Harbor that day- to grab a quick bite before our scheduled speedboat tour. This thing was one of the best crabcake sandwiches I have ever eaten. It was perfectly moist, with a good crab-to-other-stuff-ratio (not overly breaded), and melted in my mouth with just a thick slice of tomato, a fresh piece of lettuce, and a generous slathering of sauce (cherry pepper remoulade). The bun was so soft. All this sandwich needed to be was a quick lunch to tide us over before a boat sped off without us. And it was so much more.
