We’re not too far into 2010 yet, but I’m thinking, it’s gonna be hard to beat these crab cakes from Funky Lil Kitchen. We decided to try a new restaurant last night and Adam had heard good things about this place. Pottstown, PA is not known for their cuisine or much of anything else. But, this newish restaurant is like being in center city Philadelphia and the food was amazing.
Apparently the menu changes too often to have a copy online, but from our experience last night, I can’t imagine that you’d be disappointed with anything they served.
I try and review my favorite crab cakes every year and so far, these crab cakes from Funky Lil Kitchen are definitely the best!
Check out the video of me and the crab on The Grub Hound.

The crab cake looks very good, but also very small. I sure the price of that crab cake is a good bit too. So tell us, did it feel you up, and what did you pay for that.
Lizzie, those crab cake look delicious. Nice portion size, too. Save one for me.
Gosh, those crab cakes in the photo look sooooo good. I’m curious if you know the calories?
Wow. Those look amazing. I had my first real crab cake in Maryland over the holidays and LOVED them.
How far are you willing to go to find a good crabcake? Just south of Baltimore you can get really good ones at Gunning’s in Jessup. Or you could come all the way down to Powhatan, VA, and ask my grandmother really nicely.
Not only are they tastier when they’re made with all crab meat and no filler, but I think they’re healthier. Because ounce for ounce, crab meat is better for you than bread crumbs. 
I think if you travel to China, especially Guangzhou, Sichuan area, you will think you are in food heaven. These 2 places are known for food throughout China and Asian countries.
Those crab cakes look tasty, that`s for sure. Wonder if crab is bad for the cholesterol?
I want to try the best and tasty crab. My mother used to cook delicious food for us. We do enjoy dining with our favorite foods.
The crab cakes look enormous! My favorite so far is not really a crab cake, per se, but a “Crab Croquetta” from a restaurant called Asia De Cuba here in New York. They pair it with a Ponzu dipping sauce and it’s simply delicious!
Wow, if I could get my crab cakes to look that good I would eat them every day!
I love “Croquetta” and am pretty sure those are dutch. But aren’t those fried? Sounds delicious. There’s this place in called Tally’s in Santa Monica, CA that has awesome Crab Cakes. But like was mentioned above…quite pricy. About the same size as in the picture was going for $18.

i think that food is delicious but In that serving it is not enough for me.!
Looking very nice but I think this type fatty foo will not be good for health.
You are absolutely true its really one one the best: i usually offer it to my customs at the massage center and they all loved it.
To have a healthy diet, we have to make certain we eat the correct kinds of foods. Nutritious foods are really beneficial for us. The nutrients help us to grow, keep our organic structure* in good repair, and help us to stay fit and active.Use food as chicken or turkey rather than red meat such as beef and lamb.
Crab cakes are so famous in my area. There’s this famous restaurant where they serve all sorts of food including this and it’s attracting allot of people because celebrities come there also.
Hey I saw that video with you guys at the Funky Lil Kitchen. That wall clock really is cool!
I wouldn’t mind going there one day.
Until December you have a lot of time to try out other crab cakes in other places and name the winner
They look absolutely gorgeous. Ive never had a crab cake that is made from fresh crab, its always tinned crab Ive had which is nice but I think its time to get some fresh crab meat and make something special myself
.
I should never have visited your blog, I am on a special diet because of my gestational diabetes and look what you got here, FOOD! Oh well! But anyway, that crab cake really looks good. I think I can smell it from here…
Cool, I live near Reading, I’m going to have to check this place out. I LOVE crab cakes!
You know, Crab Cakes are one food which I’ve never before tried, but I’m determined to. Best part is, since I’m in training and require a high protein diet it all goes towards the muscle gains
What sauces do you recommend for crab cakes?
The Crab Cakes look absolutely awesome, making my mouth water as we speak lol.. If you really like crab cakes and you ever end up in New York City Try them at China Grill, You’ll be sure to love them.
Only one way to loose weight. Don’t eat so much!
I keep reading that fish is good for you, both oily and non-oily, so I’m making a determined effort to eat more of both types.
Hi Lizzie, we have the same nickname. Mine is sometimes spelled as lizzy though. Haven’t tasted crab cakes but I am fond of seafoods especially shrimps. My sister is a good cook so I’ll have her serve us the best crab cakes.
I love seafood, and I’m worried its going to become much more pricey because of the oil spill, and maybe not safe to eat
Are these also a good for losing weight? Can please provide a menu for this crab cakes? I am interested to try the taste of this recipe because i find it delicious and good for some occasions to prepare for my family, relatives, and friends. By the way, thank you for sharing this recipe on us.. keep it up the good work on your blog.

I love the appearance of crab cake but i have eaten them as of yet. I researched about them over Google and Wiki was the first result which showed that they are made from meat, milk, bread, eggs, yellow onions etc.
I was just wondering if i could eat them up as i am on weight loss and consuming these high calories ingredients can fatten me more. Anyhow, i love your blog and have bookmarked it in my delicious account.
Hope to get some more and useful posts from you…
Do those crab cakes come in lo cal version or do I have to have the will power to accept some sort of portion control lol
Not only are they tastier when they’re made with all crab meat and no filler, but I think they’re healthier. Because ounce for ounce, crab meat is better for you than bread crumbs.
Lordy, I LOVE crab cakes. Visited my brother in Maryland a few years ago and ate the best crab cakes in the world. We don’t get anything like it in Tucson! I’ll admit the cake in your picture looks fabulous.
The Carb cake looks awesome!
Carbohydrates are an important part of any healthy diet, in fact – regular consumption of carbs do not lead to weight gain, unless they are eaten to excess. After all, eating too much of anything is harmful to health.
Thanks for sharing.
Greetings,
I couldn’t find an email address to send this to, so I thought I’d write to you in a comment.
Van’s Natural Foods, a frozen breakfast company that only uses natural, minimally-processed, good for you ingredients, has just introduced a new line of Lite waffles. With just 70 calories per waffle, 6 grams of fiber per serving and honey-sweetened taste, they make for a delicious and healthy start to any day!
These waffles are just what the doctor would order, as they are free of high-fructose corn syrup and are sweetened with honey and pure cane sugar. They are made with a mix of whole grains, using both traditional and exotic ingredients including: whole wheat, oat, barley, brown rice, dark rye, quinoa, amaranth and millet flours. When compared to the typical frozen waffles we’ve all grown accustomed to, this blend really makes for a unique texture and has a much more “grown-up†taste.
We’d love for you to taste our waffles for yourself and are happy to send you coupons to try them for free. Would you also be interested in offering coupons to your readers in order to introduce the new line of Lite waffles?
Please don’t hesitate to let me know if you have any questions and if you decide to share with your readers.
Thanks!

That crab cake looks so freaking yummy. Is that the actual one they served you in the restaurant .
Well, here it is August, 2010 and this posting may be completely moot if the crab is coming out of the now oil-rich Gulf of Mexico. If it tastes a bit 30 weightish, I wouldn’t eat any more. A lot of great seafood has been ruined….bigtime bummer!!
It’s all about a high proportion of quality lump crab. Looks like these guys at LFK nailed it. I hate when you order crab cakes and it’s all breading. Yuck!
Lizzie, any updates on your progress?
Great recipe!! Thank you for sharing this to with us. I have been trying to make the perfect crab cake recipe, but I always have problems with it. Now that I have tried making your crab cake recipe, I finally cooked up a successful crab cake! So delicious, also went really well with my iced coffee. Kudos!
Thanks for the funky lil kitchen. I am sure to checkout the dish. Looks a little dull, but i hope it tastes great.
I have diabetes, so i hope its not sweet, people out here if they are suffering with diabetes, you can check my site for signs and symptoms of diabetes
I love crab cakes! I make them every Christmas as well as fillet of sole stuffed with crab meat. The best, and very little fat to boot!
