When I moved from the East Coast to Lexington in 2005 to pursue a career in Thoroughbred racing, I knew my wife and I would miss our family and friends but I had no idea how much we’d miss some of our favorite foods.
My wife is from Maryland and the sudden realization that no restaurants in Lexington serve crabs — because we were nowhere near saltwater — was especially harsh. I’ve since utilized this amazing crabcake recipe on many occasions to stem the tide until we can get back East to visit family.
