The crab cakes aren’t quite as big as a baseball. But they’re close. And they make much better eating.
In fact, the crab cakes at River City Winery are the best you’ll find in the Metro region. They’re formed of good-quality lump crabmeat, lightly packed, pleasantly seasoned and fried to a toasty brown finish. Then they’re sluiced with a light, creamy sriracha-lime aioli that’s studded with black-eyed peas, kernels of corn, herbs and other goodies (market-priced, recently $7.50 per cake). A couple of these and a salad would make a fine meal.
New Albany is a state of mind … but whose? Since 2004, we’ve been observing the contemporary scene in this slowly awakening old river town. If it’s true that a pre-digital stopped clock is right twice a day, when will New Albany learn to tell time?

The C-J's free-lancing food writer Marty Rosen likes River City Winery. The Confidential household does, too.
