Have you ever driven through Martinsburg and saw the building with the giant crab on top?
That's Mother Shuckers Crab Shack, a local restaurant that specializes in fresh seafood.
The menu features crab, salmon, scallops, shrimp, mussels, oysters and more.
I went for one of their "specialties" - snow crab & shrimp platter served with drawn butter and two sides. On this day, it was dungeness, and I got sweet corn fritters and shrimp macaroni salad as my sides.
I don't think I knew what I was in for when I ordered this. But a giant bucket was delivered to me before my platter.
This was a ton of delicious food. Yes, it was work. But it was also so worth it.
I've had the pawpaw ice cream. The pawpaw sorbet. And now, I had to try the pawpaw muffin. Pawpaw season at Ellen's is the best.
St. Clairsville has a cute little downtown area and tucked in the midst is a DiCarlo's location.
This one has a modern take, with cute plants on each table and a trendy vibe.
The pizza was piping hot with long shreds of mozzarella and provolone that just melted gently overtop.
There are so many delicious places in Harpers Ferry that I have yet to try. But I was recently able to knock one more off my list: The Anvil Restaurant.
Known for their legendary crab cakes, the restaurant also serves other classic favorites.
Since it was lunch time, I ordered the crab cake sandwich which came with lettuce and tomato.
This part of the state is big on seafood - and I'm here for it.
