Seeking blue crabs, bluefish, blue point oysters in the Fort Meade/Goddard/Greenbelt area.
UPDATE:
Drove until I was lost, passing strip mall after strip mall with pizza joints and sub shops, Denny’ses and Wendy’ses and a Chick Fil-A, a Ruby Tuesday’s, and a Chevy’s. No seafood. My criteria shifted to “less known franchise” and “tablecloth” (or if crab house, newspapers would have been fine). But I am too far inland and in high geek country. Cuisine here runs more to Mountain Dew and Cheetos.
Finally found a new Italian restaurant, “Benito’s Brick Oven Italiano,” that satisfied both criteria. Ordered a Pelligrino, the fried calamari appetizer, a crab and avocado salad with interesting dressing and several dozen little cherry tomatoes, and for an entree, the baked ziti pomodori. Ended up boxing the ziti for Tuesday evening enjoyment. My splendid hotel room is equipped with both a nuke and a fridge, so if I’m dining alone after F2C, then I’m already set up.
UPDATE 2
Box lunch from Whole Foods… selected roast beef with blue cheese sandwich. No blue corn chips available though.

In WI you should be looking for blue cheese and not blue sea food.
I am Not saying anything. See that? Perfect control.
Listen, let me know what Shirky’s wearing – shoes especially. If you get up close ask him if he’s Skull & Bones. If you get any closer ask him if he wants to play a few “friendly hands”. He’s an enthusiast, but zero talent and/or luck at cards. A real Affleck.
I could go for some crab right about now. I gotta stop reading you in the morning. It’s Exactly why I avoid that Schlub Scoble; food blogging in the morning. Great, now I’m fucking stahvin heah. Thanks a lot Frank. Hope you’re having a “good” time.
Send me a postcard. Or a t-shirt or some shit.
Tree, I’m not that far from Laurel! They were running yesterday, but I was in the air. Now they don’t run again until Thursday and naturally I’ll already be gone. I’ll get pictures of Shirky’s shoes.
