Lately we’ve been heading to Conrad's Crabs & Seafood Market, 1720 E. Joppa Road, Parkville, 410-882-1515, to satisfy our seafood cravings. We think it’s great that Tony Conrad, co-owner with his wife Andrea, is a real waterman, who catches a lot of the market’s fish. Conrad showcases fish from other parts of the country, too—all beautifully presented on ice. And the staff couldn’t be more helpful. They’ll cheerfully fillet and clean whatever you want. The store also has prepared items, like shrimp salad and crab cakes, but if you have a hankering for steamed crabs, reserve them early: The spicy, heavy hard shells are much in demand.
