Faidley Seafood, Baltimore, MD

I recently had a couple of hours to kill in Baltimore, and all of the food advice that I got had something to do with crabs. "Steamed crabs!" "Boiled crabs!" "Softshells!" I decided on a place called Faidley Seafood, as it has the added bonus of being located inside a market. After having the crab cake here, I can see how the versions that we've come to know in other places have gotten a bad rap. Their 'crab cake' is really just a baseball-sized ball of lump crab - I'm already trying to come up with an excuse to get back there for another. Clams weren't too shabby either:
