| - You need to know right now that my Wife grew up on the Atlantic Ocean very near the Chesapeake Bay. Her family were all Watermen. They fished and raked both clams and oysters. Just what do you think she ate every day of her life? Right, seafood. Ok, me too.
Crab Corner food is what I remember from my Maryland and Virginia peninsula days. It is absolutely authentically prepared each day with 'flown in overnight" fresh seafood.
Our meal last night (Monday) :
Appetizer - Calamari. Fresh tentacles and tube rounds in a light coating. This offering is cooked quickly. The crispy coating is light, brown and in place. The squid inside is hot, tender and clean tasting. Remember, if you cook squid over a minute you get rubber, These folks know how to do it.
Soup: - Cream of Crab. Hot, creamy succulent, and filled with blue crab meat. This is something Libby's Grandma would make.
Entree - Crab Cake Platter. Let's start with the fact that these huge cakes are nothing but blue crab. There are NO FILLERS. They use a very light bit of coating and then broil them. Nothing but taste here. Excellent menu item. Comes with two cakes and two sides.
Entree - Soft - Shell Crab Platter. The best you can get. They have a number of sizes. the three we had were called Chesapeake Bay, MD "Prime Size". Crunchy, sweet and juicy. Very "home style Maryland".
Sides - Don't bother to fool with the regular old frozen fried. Pay the extra $1.00 for the wonderful Boardwalk Fries. These are hand cut and fried in peanut oil with a hint of crab spices. Then you make them swim in some great malt vinegar. Just like on the Boardwalk in Ocean City Maryland. I can almost smell the salt are as I eat them.
Mimi's Potato Salad is the home made style that is uses by Mom's and Grandma's all around the Chesapeake Bay. Seriously flavorful, rich, and creamy. The Cole slaw is creamy and filled with that course slaw you want. The texture and flavor is right there.
Drinks - Iced Tea was fresh made, cold, and clean tasting. A fine thirst quencher.
We had no room for desert. I think for my next trip in I will start my meal with a Baltimore Shaved Ice "Snowball" with about a dozen flavors to choose from. My Wife did manage to get out the door with two packs of Tasty Cakes. (that's a comfort food from MD)
The menu is extensive. It is going to take us a while to try everything. You see above what we had on this first trip in. Go on line (CrabornerLV.com) and take a look at their menu. It is extensive.
Their claim to fame is the "flown in daily" Maryland Blue Crabs. They are steamed with Crab Blend Seasoning and the dumped on your table. You just use your mallet and pick to bring that sweet crab meat right on to your taste buds.
My next meal is going to be fresh single fried oysters and a bunch of steamed hard shell blue crabs.
For the quality, quantity, cooking, and freshness of what you get at the Crab Corner the cost is very reasonable.
You want a great east coast seafood meal? This is the place to be.
