For a taste of baltimore as portrayed by john waters, go to G&M for crab cakes. you may not be able to get a seat, so be prepared to get them to go. the place gets a zagat 7 for decor(which is generous). The crab cakes are boiled, then broiled.
G&M isn't exactly easy to find if you are not familiar with the area. If you are going to travel that far out,
Timbuktu puts their crabcakes to shame
For a day in Baltimore, definitely get a water taxi ticket. Spend some time walking around Fell's Point, Ft. Mc Henry, Canton. Try a Clipper City cruise (discount coupon with water taxi ticket). Restaurants in FEll's Point will be better and less expensive than in the Inner Harbor.
Crabby Dick's is good as is
Obrycki's and
Bo Brooks.
