Yep...I am in MD about every other weekend and MD is, of course, known for crabs and crab cakes (the Bethesda Crab House is a favorite). As a matter of fact, on many menus in NY and NJ, the crab cakes will be listed as “Maryland” or “Maryland-style.” You would think that if the Time writer missed it, their fact-chacker would have caught it. What fools...
If you get a chance try Obricki’s in Baltimore, just east of the Inner Harbor, or Jerry D’s on Harford Road......
