Although I agree that the Maryland Inn is a wonderfully romantic spot
in Annapolis, I have to warn you that the Cafe Normandie has become
very inconsistent over the years.  Back when it was the Crepe Normande,
you could count on consistently excellent food.  Several changes in 
ownership have left them a bit on the shaky side, IMHO.  The last time
my wife and I went there, they had moved to the larger storefront, and,
once again, my crepe arrived tepid.  The food is wonderful, when you get
it hot, but it's definitely a step down from the glory days.

I'd also recommend the Harbour House as a good place to eat, with a nice
romantic view of the harbor.  Don't go during prime time or you'll find
all the window tables taken.  Prices aren't too bad, but the food is
excellent.
