We had what is probably the BEST crab cake that I've ever had at Faidley's in Lexington Market. Lots of tender lump crab (no filler at all, just a little something to hold it together when they deep fry it) with a tinge of mustard flavor. We got 2 sides with the platter: cucumber salad (surprisingly good, very light, and refreshing) and fries. This was a good light (and late) lunch before the dinner we had at 7pm.
For dinner, we had crabs at Obrycki's in Fell's Point. We spent many hours in this restaurant. After the six of us polished off 2 dozen crabs, we ordered more food. Some ordered linguine and dessert but I stuck to just dessert (key lime pie) and some potato skins with bacon(!).
The next day, for lunch, we ate at Eat Bertha's Mussels in Fell's Point. The restaurant is in a charming building that looks as if it used to be a house, with little nooks and alcoves in unexpected places. I had the mussels with garlic butter and basil sauce and also tried the garlic butter and capers sauce.
This time around, we stayed away from eating at the Inner Harbor, which seemed to be a good move b/c we didn't spend oodles of money on little food. Thank you New York Times for sharing good places to eat at!
