The Crab Galley has been around for as long as the CCR can remember.  They are family-owned local seafood carryout establishment, specializing in steamed crabs and other seafood.  They are located in Odenton and Bowie.  With a name like Crab Galley, you'd want to believe that they know what to do with some crabs.  So are they masters of the crab cake, or should you just stick to ordering crabs?  Find out inside!

Last week, we reviewed The Crab Galley's Backfin Crab Cake.  This week, we turn our sights on the Jumbo Lump Crab Cake.  In case you didn't know, The Crab Galley is a local carryout seafood shop, with locations in Odenton and Baltimore.  They specialize in steamed crabs, as well as other seafood delights.  We saw how the backfin cake was, but is the jumbo lump any better?  Read on and find out!

Eden's Landing is the bar/restaurant located inside the BWI Doubletree, serving contemporary American cuisine with a twist.  When traveling to new places, either for business or pleasure, the hotel restaurant can be a very convenient choice when it comes to dinner (especially if you don't have transportation).  Maybe after lugging the kids around the harbor all day, you don't quite feel like trying to figure out where else to go.  But you're in Maryland, and it becomes that unspoken tradition to have some crab cakes!  Are the ones at Eden's Landing worth trying?  Read along and find out!

The Edgewater Restaurant has been around since 1948, and is one of those local institutions that will get people all excited at just a mention of the name.  A sheer testament to their ability to survive as long as they have, you'll get the same reaction from everyone -- the crab cakes are their most favorite thing in the world.  But, the one thing they neglect to tell you, is WHICH crab cakes are their favorite.  You see, Edgewater sells two kinds -- jumbo lump and backfin.  One could assume that the jumbo lumps are it, but if you happen to show up on a Wednesday, you'll notice that the backfin crab cakes are the special of the day!  Not wanting to pass up a good deal, the CCR decided to focus their efforts on the backfins, at least this time around.  Are they as legendary as jumbo lumps?  Time to see for ourselves!

It may be considered the end of summer, but it's not the end of crab season!  If you're a typical Marylander, crabs are certainly going to be part of your weekends until the boats turn up dry.  With so many places to choose from, why not pick a shack?  Enter Fat Boys to the rescue, located in Crofton not far off of Rt 50.  But while crabs are all well and good, we actually need to stay a little clean this time around (what with everyone wearing white pants for some reason), so crab cakes it is!  Does the Shack deliver, or should you stick to crackin' and pickin'?  Let's find out!
