Maryland Eats: Avas Pizzeria & Wine Bar

{Made-to-order Old Bay potato chips. YUMS!}

St. Michaels, Maryland is a gorgeous historic town known for the upscale hotels and spas overlooking the bay, the adorable shops, and the delicious Maryland fare. In the summer you will find me dining at the Crab Claw, enjoying a bushel of crabs along with their amazing chocolate-chip muffins. However if you visit this charming town in the winter- clearly crabs aren’t in season so you would find me at Avas Pizzeria & Wine Bar. Ava’s proves that Maryland can do more than just crabs. Their food is fresh and delicious as they make their own dough and mozzarella, and use a brick oven for most of their dishes. Everything was FAB and I’m a big fan of the fresh made-to order potato chips.
