G&M Restaurant & Lounge

 I had the chance to dine at G&M yesterday.  Many people have told me how great their crab cakes are and I wanted to see if they can live up to the hype of serving the Maryland's #1 Crab Cakes!

Stuffed Mushroom Caps with Crabmeat

For appetizer we ordered the Stuffed Mushroom, the portion was big, and there was so much lump crab meat on it, you don't even see the mushrooms.  The crab meat was delicious.  100% crab meat, creamy and rich and cooked to perfection with the right amount of moisture and seasoning!

Maryland Carb Soup
The Maryland Crab Soup was a disappointment.  There was too much tomato sauce in the soup, the consistency was on the thicker side, and there were more vegetables than crab meat.  Maybe try ordering their cream of crab soup and see if that's any better. 

Baked Crab Imperial
When we were ordering our entrees, the waiter told us we have ordered way too much food, but since we wanted to try everything, we just told him we will pack it to go afterwards.  When the food came and we saw how humongous the crab cakes and baked oysters were, we knew there was no way we can even finish half of our entrees.  So, unless you are going straight home after dining at G&M, I would highly recommend you share an entree, one entree is not for one person, it was more for 2-3 people. I seriously think a double crab cake platter can serve 4 people.  Don't get me wrong, I wasn't complaining about the portion, to be honest, for the price you pay and get such big portion of delicious crab cakes, it was a steal!  It was just a little embarrassing that we have to pack 80% of our food home.  Was G&M crab cakes the #1 crab cakes in Maryland? I don't know, but it was definitely the best crab cakes I have ever had in terms of price and quality by a long shot!

Baked Stuffed Oysters
6 baked oysters layered with crab cake should be the right name on the menu, each one of those is bigger than my palm!  Also I forgot to mention, each entree comes with 2 sides as well. 

Homemade Crab Cake Egg Benedict
Since we packed all our food home, today we took the imperial crab cakes and split them and lay them on English muffins, and threw a poach egg on it and made 4 Eggs Benedict to feed the family.  I tried two method to warm up the left over crab cakes, one is oven baked in low heat and the other is microwave, both method didn't take anything away from these killer crab cakes, and they taste just as good as they did at the restaurant.  By the way, the huge imperial crab cakes wouldn't even fit on the muffin, so we threw the rest onto a salad and it still taste delicious!
