  I had dinner with a bunch of folks the other night at a place here in
San Antonio called Liberty Bar. It is an upscale place that strives
mightily to be funky.
  Judging by the crowds, they have achieved commercial success buy
judging by my crab cakes, they have achieved culinary success too. There
were two themes to them that worked to achieve it. The first was lots of
crab meat and the second was a great mix of seasonings dominated by
minced jalapeņos. I would imagine that the seasoning was Old Bay but you
can't hide jalapeņos. They were the best I have ever eaten.
