We just returned from Boston where we had plenty of whole belly clams. Now we’re back in Detroit. Any idea where we can find some around here?

I was born In Boston and grew up on fresh seafoods, I am now 64 and got married 11 years ago to a woman in PA. Oh I love her, but they only have Crabs here, huh, not my cup of tea. I love haddock,cod,and especially clams w/the bellies.
There fish batter here is hard and tuff, not light and crispy, I can’t afford to come home yet is there anyway I could get the recipe for a light fish and clam batter. I will order my clams from Ipswich Ma. I love my clams and miss them as I do all my seafood up North. helpless in PA

Thisis an excelent post. Would have replied sooner but I just retired out here from Ft.Lewis, WA. If you would like to know where to great fresh clam bellies, just ask me. If you are on the east coast then, you are blessed. My fiance’ is a Conneticut born and raised girl, and she introduced me to clam belies like 4 years ago (little did she know that they have been serving them in the U.K. for years. Honestly, America does thes wonderful creatures righ. No waste and puts a smile on all clam belly lovers’ faces; even if it may substandard (c’mon, don’t lie! ;-)) Again, thank you, and good therapy for me!

Thanks for the great info on clam differences. I wondered why all the restaurants in Wilmington, DE had inferior fried clams. Now I know they are merely strips.

I GREW UP IN MERIDEN, CONN. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO GO TO BAILEY ISLAND, MAINE ON VACATION WITH AN AUNT & UNCLE WHEN I WAS 12 AND 13 YEARS OLD. THIS WAS MY INTORDUCTION TO MAINE LOBSTER AND FRIED CLAMS. I AM NOW AN OLD MAN LIVING IN RETIREMENT IN PORT RICHEY, FL. HERE I FOUND A RESTAURANT THAT SERVES MY FAVORITE, IPSWITCH CLAMS. HOW LUCKY I AM TO BE ABLE TO SAVOR THIS WONDERFUL CLAM WITH MY WIFE WHEN WE DINE OUT. IN THE FUTURE I AM PLANNING A TRIP UP NORTH TO MAINE AND FILL UP ON THIS GREAT SEAFOOD OF MAINE LOBSTER & CLAMS. THE BEST IN THE WORLD BY FAR. I LOOK FORWARD TO CHECKING OUT THE “CLAM BOX” WHEN I DO. SAVE SOME CLAMS FOR ME, BOB BACON
