When I think of Maryland, I think crabs, crabcakes, and Old Bay seasoning. The allure of fresh seafood is undeniable, but I will say, no one will be eating whole crabs on this trip. I can’t have my food looking at me! And Layla, while adventurous in many ways, is not a fan of seafood. But even with our picky palates and gluten restrictions, I am confident we will find something amazing at these gems. The charm of Maryland’s diverse culinary scene promises delightful surprises, and we are eager to dive in and taste the unique flavors this state has to offer.
