I love the chocolate bar on Chippewa. It makes any day a celebration. I had crab cakes and a crime brûlée. Sounds like it would be gross but it's actually an amazing combination. They also make their own mozzarella sticks inhouse.

Atlas Eats in RochesterCategory: food
Also while in Rochester we stopped at Atlas Eats
If you ever get a chance to eat there, I say you should jump on it. The food was amazing. This cheddar bisquit with bacon and egg was so good. So was the kimchee pancake that (e:uchina) and (e:joe) had.
I wanted some of the desserts so bad but I was so full.

Yeah, they call that picking crabs. I don't get it either. It's a lot of work and a lot of carnage. Native Marylanders explained to me that there's a social aspect to picking crabs, deeply ingrained in the local culture. You're supposed to cover a table with newspaper, drink cheap local beer (National Bohemian), and plan in spending hours chatting and picking crabs. If you come to town for this again, or crab cakes, let me know! I'd be happy to show you around Bmore.
Sounds like I'm going to have to travel for some crab cakes. The last time I was in Maryland I got a bucket of the blue crabs themselves. While they were absolutely delicious, it required an enormous amount of effort to extract them. I want to try the cakes next time.
First, Happy Birthday! Second, are those crab cakes deep fried? If so, that would not go over well in Maryland, where the crab cake is taken very seriously, worshipped even. I don't brag about Maryland too much, but they definitely got crab cakes right here in Baltimore. That said, Balitmore's best chicken wings are probably on par with Buffalo's worst.
