On the 22nd day of the Maryland Crab Cake Tour, the troops arose early and headed to Smith Island for a double cake day. Join our boat and crew members as we sail to Tylerton and eat the most remote crab cake in the state and spend a morning in the kitchen of a legend. We even managed to grab another crab cake at The Narrows in Kent Island on the way home to make our Queen Anne’s County ‘cake work.

We slept hard after a long, long day that began in Ocean City and then on a boat in Crisfield and a trip back over the Bay Bridge to Baltimore.

Follow along all of July for last year’s glorious and delicious 30 crab cakes in 30 days (#CrabCakeTour on Twitter and Facebook) and let Nestor re-tell you where to go this summer for a tasty ‘cake.

This year’s tour is sponsored by The Maryland Lottery, Goodwill Industries and Window Nation and the Restaurant Association of Maryland and begins at Rocky Gap State Park on August 1st and will stretch for 31 thirsty days and nights as Nestor celebrates his 31st Anniversary as Baltimore’s longest-running and most celebrated radio voice and media traveling crab cake taster all month for a second run at great Maryland businesses and local breweries all over The Free State. From Oakland to Ocean City, from Cumberland to Cambridge – The Maryland Crab Cake Tour retrospective from 2020 is here and the 2021 edition is coming your way.

If you have a nominee for a delicious Maryland crab cake somewhere on the local roads, now is the time to toss Nestor a note: nes@baltimorepositive.com. We’re always looking for a new place to bring our sponsors: The Maryland Lottery, Goodwill Industries and Window Nation and the Restaurant Association of Maryland in support of Restaurant Week from September 16-25, 2022.
