I was on an overnight layover from BWI back in 2003. A cab brought me to a hotel reccomended restraunt for dinner. I don't remeber the name of it, but it had the best crab cakes I ever had in my life. I will be traveling through that area again soon and would like to find that restraunt. From what I remeber, it was about 8-10 miles from BWI and was in a kind of a small shopping plaza or strip mall with an overhang around the front. There was a liquor store across the street and I had to wait about an hour in the parking lot just to get to the lounge it was so crowded. Does this sound familiar to any Baltimore natives?

I think you are talking about G&M. It isn't too far from the airport (id say about 5 miles away) there is usually a wait there.

A picture may be worth a thousand words. See if this jogs your memory. G&M has been rated #1 Baltimore Crabcakes on many sites.

From the Editors
Located southwest of Baltimore city, G & M is a dive restaurant and bar that arguably offers the best crab cakes in the area. This assertion in public, however, will buy you a heated discussion from fans of Jimmy's or Timbuktu. This is why the line stretches out the door on weekends, and despite the enormous menu (of American, Italian and Greek items), is the top reason to eat at G & M. And thousands of fans can't be wrong; the crab cake (sandwich or platter) is by far the best thing on the menu. Look around -- nearly every plate has a crab cake. Watch out, hon, this is not your usual Maryland crab cake that is deep- fried, brown, small and loaded with filler. G & M's crab cakes are broiled, golden, huge (the size of a grown man's fist), and contain large chunks of lump backfin crabmeat with very little filler. -- Elayne Kochis

I did the Duck excursion final week in Baltimore and it became extremely some relaxing. you purchase your value tag at a kiosk by way of the united statesshape deliver and the geese take off some block away. You get a fine looking "Quacker" to quack at everybody. that's a ninety minute excursion that takes you into the harbor and likewise excursions the Baltimore attractions. the indoors Harbor is fairly risk-free. you could see some panhandlers yet probable no longer. Park your motor vehicle on the Hyatt storage and there's a walkway on the third point to the indoors Harbor. flow in the path of the mall development and all the way down to first point, flow outdoors, turn left and the Duck kiosk is approximately one hundred ft from there. Little Italy is adjoining to the indoors Harbor by way of the Aquarium. stable eating places throughout. For crabcakes or crab imperial, flow to Phillips or to the Rusty Scupper. As for 183 going to the Harbor, i did no longer tension yet rode with a chum so i do no longer understand.

I think you went to G&M based on the description. I put a link to their web site below. The crab cakes are very good there. Phillips has seemed to not be as good as they used to when I have gone there lately. Gunnings is also good and in a strip mall very close to the airport, but your description does not sound right for there.

I'm thinking you might be talking about Gunning's: http://www.gunningsonline.com/index.html
Or Angelina's: http://search.cityguide.aol.com/baltimore/restaurants/angelinas/v-102404822?squery=19%3Acityids+AND+45%3Avenuetypekey&skip=30&uquery=skip%3D30%26stid%3D%26tid%3D%26pid%3D%26vfid%3D%26vptid%3D%26
If it's Angelina's be prepared for the fact that they're under new management and the crab cake will not be the same as it was three or four years ago. It's really gone down :(
Gunning's is still excellent, as is the G&M recommended by the other answerer.
