Crab cake wars

My daughter called me last night to ridicule me for my post on crab cakes. She pointed out my cowardice by saying that I usually respond to at least some of the comments under an entry, but on this one, ...


...with a record 43 posts, I've been laying very low as the discussion has gotten more and more heated.

She also said, "Dude, it's just a crab cake," proving that she's gone over to the dark side and I should never have let her move to California.

Finally, she suggested that we arrange a blind taste test between G & M's and Captain Larry's crab cakes for their proponents, and the people who couldn't tell the difference be shot; but I'm not sure upper management would go for that. Crab cakes are very expensive.

Well, if they decide to do this with just a small panel of tasters, I'd certainly volunteer. :)

If you don't include Koko's it will not be a true competition. All this talk about crab cakes has me planning my next trip to Baltimore. I'm having crab cakes for Thanksgiving. At Koko's.

Guys, what part of "shot" don't you understand?

Um...why not make it a REAL "crab-off" and include Faidley's?
