If you don’t live in Baltimore, you may not be aware of one of the more recent food trends — crab cake egg rolls. In fact, it really isn’t new, but it is finally being recognized. And now it is spreading like wildfire. In fact, stuffing all of our favorite foods into an egg roll wrapper is, like Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls and Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls.
Any restaurant that has any stakes in crab cakes or crab dip now also has an investment in crab cake egg rolls. One of Baltimore’s best Instagramers posted a wildly popular image of crab cake egg rolls from a local restaurant, AJ’s on Hanover, and then the Baltimore Sun picked it up.
Papi’s Tacos in Fells Point started making them, and now the iconic Jimmy’s Seafood is too. Everyone is jumping on the bandwagon. If you don’t live here and are wondering what they are, this dish is basically a Maryland spin on a crab rangoon, packaged like an egg roll but with a lot more crab.
