EVENT: Crazy for crab cakes? Pierpont Inn Executive Chef Marcus Hollingsworth is too! Packed with flavor, these tasty crab cakes are the top-selling appetizer at The Pierpont Inn for a reason: more crab meat and not a lot of mayonnaise or bread crumbs, resulting in bright, crunchy, buttery cakes. Another reason? The seasoning – Hollingsworth uses lemon zest and tarragon and serves the appetizer with fiber pesto and raspberry and red pepper coulis, providing harmonic balance between spicy, sweet, hot and savory. “People just rave about our crab cakes and you will too,” Hollingsworth says.
