Almost

      If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Disney World flatters the resort town of Cape May, NJ very well.  At the Beach Club Resort there is a seafood all-you-can-eat buffet that can satisfy almost any palate.  Almost.
     Yes, there are clams and mussels and crab legs galore.  There are shrimp with cocktail sauce and lemon,  even crab cakes and fried fish.  And clam chowder as well.  There is fresh bread, red bliss potatoes and corn on the cob, green beans and even a carving station with roast beef.  Desserts, too.
     And you can go back as many times as you'd like.  (I went only 3).
     But one thing is painfully absent.  There are no steamed crabs.  None!  Nary a Maryland Blue Claw to be found anywhere on the entire buffet table.  That's quite a disappointment for someone like me who could eat half a bushel at one sitting.
     Disney got it almost right.  Almost.
