Crab Cakes with Remoulade

Recently my husband and I went on a date night to The Blue Door on Dixie Hwy. We completely fell in love with this place’s atmosphere and food. One of our appetizer’s was the crab cakes with remoulade. The shape is something we couldn’t figure out as they were tall stacks about two inches in height and the tops and bottoms were browned. This is my own take on these delicious crab cakes with remoulade. I hope you enjoy them as much as we did.
