Road trippers will know they crossed the Mason-Dixon Line when they step into The Frying Pan, Maryland's Southern food diner since 1969. Not only does the restaurant's savory fare taste just like home, but it also offers local and seaside favorites like fried oysters, clams, and softshell crab. Top off your crab cakes with warm pie a la mode and wash it all down with an icy glass of fresh-brewed tea, and you'll feel like you're sitting on the veranda on a lazy summer day.
The Frying Pan is little pomp and all circumstance - clean and simple, with the main focus being the meals.
Embellish your mom's BLT, and what you get is the diner's Ample Club Sandwich, complete with crispy bacon. It goes great with cold sweet tea.
In the days of yore, Southerners required a particularly substantial breakfast, like this creamed chipped beef.
Eggs over easy with some warm scrapple is delicious, as is the French toast.
A thick slice of ham and homemade hash browns cap off scrambled eggs perfectly.
The restaurant exudes a sense of homecoming all year, from the décor to the smell of all your favorites sliding off the griddle.
The Frying Pan can be found at 9895 Hg Trueman Road in Lusby. Though the diner doesn't have an official website, you can find all you need to know, including the current business hours, on their Facebook page. Make a pit stop on your next trip to the ocean or the South, and enjoy the cuisine from both places!
