Crabby Joe’s at Lake George

Crabby Joe’s at Lake George is a great place to eat. We had just finished walking around the Lake George Battlefield and had a couple of hours before our lake cruise. We decided to grab something to eat.
As we walked down the street, we saw Crabby Joe’s.

Crabby Joe’s offers outside seating with nice views.  We got two appetizers to share. I got the fried calamari with Thai Chili and Homemade chips and dip.

Boundary House Restaurant at Calabash

The Boundary House Restaurant at Calabash, North Carolina is a good place to eat.

I think a lot of people who go to Myrtle Beach, but they don’t know about the great seafood at Calabash.  Where as they go to Murrell’s Inlet, Just a short drive north and across the state line is Calabash, North Carolina and it is the home of great seafood.  The seafood at Calabash is different from what you would find at Murrell’s Inlet (Drunken Jacks) or in Florida (Salty Dog) or New England (Union Oyster House). The people at Calabash started selling their style of food in the 1940’s and it has never stopped. Calabash is the “Seafood Capital of the World”.

As the Capital, Calabash has more than it’s share of great restaurants.  We decide to try the Boundary House Restaurant at Calabash.  The Boundary House is a large restaurant with plenty of seating.

The style of cooking and the flavors are different at Calabash but on a cold day nothing is better than chowder.

After the chowder which was great, we got our salads.

The photo I took does not do the salad justice, but the croissant was as good as it looks. Getting back to the meal. I decided to have the Crab Cake Sandwich. 

The Boundary House Restaurant at Calabash seasons the crab with the traditional Calabash style.  I love crab cakes, but had never had one as a sandwich, but now I know what I was missing out on. My wife ordered the Large Shrimp. It came with Salad and a side.

The food at Boundary House Restaurant at Calabash was really good. It was worth the drive to get this meal. Finally next time you are in the area look up  Boundary House Restaurant.

The food is good however the views around Calabash are worth seeing also. Come early or stay late but give yourself time to look around the town and harbor.
