Baltimore- Mama's on the Half Shell and Cup Love
I took a day trip with my friends to Baltimore. Of course, incorporated in the day trip was food.
We got lunch from Mama's on the Half Shell (2901 O'Donnell St, Baltimore, MD 21224) and dessert at Cup Love (2928 O'Donnell St, Baltimore, MD 21224). Below are my reviews.

Seafood Melt |
The restaurant was quite busy. There were two levels and outside seating. We wanted to sit on the first level. Luckily, a table freed up shortly after we arrived. I got the Seafood Melt. The melt came with fries and was made of shrimps, baby scallops, supposedly lump crab salad, cheese, and tomato serve on top of an english muffin. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the melt. In the melt, I could not really taste the crab. Also, I think the restaurant used frozen shrimp and frozen baby scallops because it was quite watery under the cheesy layer and the english muffin under the melt was soggy but then again the water can be from the tomatoes. I also thought the baby scallops tasted kind of funny. They were definitely not fresh tasting. On the bright sides, the fries tasted great. They were thick, tender inside, and crispy outside. I wished I order something else on the menu. My friends ordered mussels and the crabcake and they loved it.

Frozen Yogurt |
For dessert, we went to Cup Love. The establishment was small, cozy, and very cute. There was alot of pink. The place offered cupcakes and frozen yogurt. We got frozen yogurt. It appeared that their frozen yogurt were made with Fage greek yogurt since there were Fage greek yogurt logos located under the flavor names. I got the vanilla, strawberry, and low fat mango topped with mango, black berries, blue berries, and mochi. The yogurts were good. They were not too tarry and not too sweet. It was a perfect balance. My favorite flavor was the vanilla. The vanilla was very rich. The fruit toppings were fresh, but I could have done without the berries. The berries were sour, but the mango was very sweet. The mochi was chewy and went well with the yogurt. Overall, I really like the frozen yogurt. It's not as good as Yogorino but it's up there.
