As an East Baltimore lifer, Nestor Aparicio loves going to his favorite places owned by old friends. On Day 18, once he heard the Highlandtown aioli was elevated he knew he’d be seeking out his old Berkshire chum Brian Eder for some fried oysters at The Chasseur, high on the Highland Street hill at Foster.
The 26th day of the Maryland Crab Cake Tour presented by The Maryland Lottery, Goodwill, Window Nation and the Restaurant Association of Maryland led us to Westminster and the vaunted ‘cake of Rocksalt Grille and a beer on the farm at Farmacy Brewing in Reisterstown.

On the 23rd day of the Maryland Crab Cake Tour, Nestor came home to Baltimore County and the legendary deliciousness of Costas Inn in Dundalk. The family has been serving my community for over 50 years and it was Mom’s favorite place to be on Mother’s Day for fried crab cake, cole slaw and fries.
