"Whoops, they did it again." The owners of the lively, innovative Crackers in Ghent have duplicated the scene downtown. The menu at this 38-seat tapas bar draws on regional American foods, and cuisines around the world. The depth of the menu -- for both drinks and food -- is a stunning quartermaster's feat in this tiny space. The smorgasbord of mini-portions includes salads, vegetables, starches, beef, fowl, fish and seafood. The menu, a vegetarian's treat, changes seasonally. Traditionalists can get meal-sized portions by adding $10 to the listed prices. Limited desserts. Expert service. Strict no-reservations policy. Open until 2 a.m
