Specialty: "We've zeroed in producing the authentic Maryland crab cake, best in the area.
It's something everyone else tries and messes up. It's so simple, but people try too hard."
Chef he admires: "Joe Puechner, who used to be the chef at Pier 66 in Ft. Lauderdale.
A true professional. Didn't ask anyone to do what he wouldn't do. Top Quality. Common sense.

We make every plate look pretty."
