Crab cakes were actually really good, would get them again. Disappointment (aside from the lack of a salad) is mashed potato’s with butter is not a good side with crab cakes. They’re both just too heavy to be served together. A crunchy green like broccoli or asparagus is much more appropriate. No complaints otherwise tho.
I love mashed potatoes but totally agree that it doesnt work with crab cakes. Too heavy, too many carbs, same texture as the cakes. I would like to try DL's DO & CO catering but I am just never in Detroit.
