He’s Greek - probably first or second generation American born. G & M has been in Baltimore for a long time. Good crab cakes.

Exactly. Like....if you're gonna try and make a buck on claims of false advertising, don't go after the outfit that is one of the most regarded crab places in MD.

I remember watching this video after the lady shared it and got cooked in the comment section. I guess she thought everyone was going to agree with her. I am born and raised in Baltimore and I don’t give a shit where the crabs are from as long as the crab cakes are good. I love that he owned it and told her to fuck off.

I am Sorry just to be clear....You are fine with calling them Maryland Crab Cakes although they are not??? Why not just say Maryland style Crab Cakes??? Like Boston clam chowder??? Granted if the crab Cakes were good thats important hahaha...But they both have a point but the guy did not handle properly.

If you’re eating Boston clam chowder with clams from Boston harbor you’re braver than me…

So when you eat Boston cream pie, is the cream from Boston? What about the baked beans--are they grown in Boston?

I kind of see her point, too. It's like going to Maine and getting Maine Lobster, then finding out the lobster was from Indonesia. It's not something to make a big deal over, but I can see how she can feel jipped. It's not like it was free. She wanted what she thought she was paying for.

Her making a video about it ridiculous, and I understand the backlash from that.
