Travel Forum / Destinations / USA and Canada / July 2009seek clambake around Boston on Oct 24
We are planning to do some sightseeing in Boston on the weekend of October 24. We particularly interested in clambake in Boston areas. Since we never been to a clambake, we would like to see and eat in this event. Your advice please. > We are planning to do some sightseeing in Boston on the weekend of October > 24. > We particularly interested in clambake in Boston areas. > Since we never been to a clambake, we would like to see and eat in this > event. Your advice please. Generally a clambake is a catered event or arranged my a bunch of family,friends. Like here: http://www.smokeyslci.com/clambakes.html ( October is a bit chilly I'd say). It's not something that ' occurs everyday ' that you pay admission to participate. Having said that, is there something in particular you are looking to eat ? do ? Here's a bunch of good spots in the area: http://www.wmur.com/travelgetaways/18810600/detail.html > Generally a clambake is a catered event or arranged my a bunch of > family,friends.

IT is the oldest continually operating restaurant in the United States.and hasn't changed in ~250 years. AND if it's a really hot late afternoon , the smell of fish for sale on the sidewalk around the corner is something that you won't soon forget. http://www.unionoysterhouse.com/ http://local.yahoo.com/info-10146802-ye-olde-union-oyster-house-boston?tab=revie ws#reviews Nearby, In Quincy Market: http://www.durgin-park.com http://travel.yahoo.com/p-travelguide-10152177R http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Durgin+Park "The food is old-fashioned, and nobody gets celebrity treatment; in fact, nobody is even treated very nicely! " http://www.roadfood.com/Restaurant/Review/320-320/durgin-park Part of the "charm" is the way that waitstaff treats you. Don't take offense - it is supposed to be funny when the waitress asks " What do you want? You expect me to go all the way back there just to get you some ketchup ?..." I haven't been downtown to eat in years ( plenty of good seafood on the North Shore of Boston), so can't be specific on your picks as of 2009. In the past few years there has been a lot of changes to traditional ( a.k.a. - OLD) restaurants in town. The NoName USED to be "something to see" ( like Filene's Basement). It was just a door on a large building ( hence the name - " No Name" ) and you BYOB, but it was all done over and is now housed in a modern building with modern menu, no BYOB etc. Still good , but no longer "something to see". James Hook burned down a few years ago, so the 60 years of "traditional " ( aka slime) was wiped away, as well as the "something to see" effect. the Phantom Gourmet is a local TV show that reviews lots of restaurants around here: Here are the recent " Great 8 Boston Legends" http://www.phantomgourmet.com/Showpage.aspx?content=GreatAteDetails&greatateid=1031 Here ARE several places to read recent reviews: http://local.yahoo.com/?csz=Boston+MA http://www.bostonmagazine.com/restaurants_2009/index.html http://www.yelp.com/c/boston/seafood And at those sites, you CAN look up reviews - often with links to restaurant website/menu. like: http://www.dailycatch.com/blackboard.html http://www.yelp.com/biz/the-daily-catch-boston?rpp=40&sort_by=rating_desc http://www.bostonmagazine.com/restaurants/detail/barking_crab http://barkingcrab.com/ http://www.bostonmagazine.com/restaurants/detail/no_name_restaurant > ARC, > You didn't say - what are you looking for ... atmosphere, shellfish, raw, [quoted text clipped - 50 lines] > > http://www.bostonmagazine.com/restaurants/detail/no_name_restaurant Bobb, thank you for your detail Boston restaurant write up. Much thanks. Please let me show you what I am looking for. For years when I visited Seattle, I always tried to visit the Crab Pot. That was great. From your list, I fancy The Legal Sea Foods, Famous Altantic Fish Company & Turner Fisheries. Which one of these would you recommend. Thank you.

Which one of these would you recommend. Thank you. I can't respond to other than the Legal Sea Foods. I went there for dinner when I was in Boston 4 years ago. I mentioned I was allergic to shrimps. The server called the manager who explained to me exactly what they were willing to serve me. (It had to be grilled.) I have never encountered such care in any other restaurant. I was most impressed. I didn't have the clambake but I had among the best oysters Rockefeller I have ever eaten. My husband said the clam chowder was the best he had in Boston. So I can recommend the quality of the food.

Other than seafood it's only ' antiques for sale '. AND you'd be there in off-season. Watch the video.

Your advice please. Hi ARC - Clambake refers to both a certain meal (steamed clams, lobster, corn-on-the-cob) and also to an event called a clambake (or lobster bake, or shore dinner). The events are usually staged outside and in sight of water if not right on a beach. There are caterers who specialize in the events, and many are run as fundraisers for civic groups, schools, churches, etc. They are hugely popular, but I would be surprised if you found one of those in late October. However, any seafood restaurant will have lobster and steamers on the menu. If the place you choose doesn't have an actual 'clambake' menu item, go ahead and create your own. Steamers will be with the appetizers, lobsters among the entrees, and corn with the sides. One more thought: There are many dinner cruises in Boston Harbor, and you might well find a clambake cruise among them. enjoy Keith > among the entrees, and corn with the sides. > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > enjoy > Keith Keith, we would very much enjoy a clambake cruise in Boston Harbor. Can you please recommend one that you like? I didn't mean I knew of any particular dinner boat, just that it seemed likely that there would be some, and there are, but they only seem to offer clambakes from Memorial Day to Labor Day. You could still call a few, because what the offer and what they can deliver are two different things. http://www.bing.com/search?q=cruise+boston+harbor+clambake&form=IE8SRC&src=IE-Se archBox Another thought is to get a bit out of Boston and up to Essex (serviced by T and short cab ride). Woodman's is the name of the most popular place there, but there are several several good seafood places within arms length. Woodmans has a catering arm that specialized in clambakes, but don't offer one by name from their menu. They do have steamers, corn-on-the-cob and boiled lobster, so just create your own. Woodman's menu: http://www.woodmans.com/restaurant/menus.cfm While I doubt they'll be open that late in the season, this little place has often surprised us in very-late September. If they don't have a boat going (or seats available) they'll do your clambake right on their dock. essex cruises: http://www.essexcruises.com/ Gloucester T station: http://maps.google.com/maps?rls=com.microsoft:en-us&oe=UTF-8&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=glo ucester+ma+t+station&fb=1&split=1&gl=us&view=text&latlng=4030573441367649442 http://local.gloucestertimes.com/essex+ma/taxis.zq.html You'll probably have luck using the above, but if all else fails you can go through some menus. You're looking for boiled lobster, steamed clams, and corn-on-the-cob. Actually, I just looked at a few menus, and Legal Seafood (a chain) offers a Lobster Bake, which adds a bowl of chowder. http://boston.menupages.com/ Have fun in Boston, Keith >> among the entrees, and corn with the sides. >> [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Keith, we would very much enjoy a clambake cruise in Boston Harbor. > Can you please recommend one that you like? >I didn't mean I knew of any particular dinner boat, just that it seemed >likely that there would be some, and there are, but they only seem to offer [quoted text clipped - 40 lines] >>> enjoy >>> Keith Keith, thank you very much. We are interested to tried the Woodman's or any other clambake restaurants. Can you please tell me what you mean by going to Essex from Boston by the "T"? Do you mean by train (or Subway)? Also, in Woodman's menu, their menu shows "Down River" Combo at $24.95. Is this what you mean the clambake? Or, are these just oil fried food?

Do you mean by train (or Subway)? "T" in Boston often means the subway, but it's short for MBTA, which operates the whole transit system and the suburban commuter trains. In this case Keith is talking about a commuter train, which only runs every couple of hours. See <http://www.mbta.com/schedules_and_maps/rail>. SignatureMark Brader, Toronto | "E-mail is idiot-proof. (I know this because I have msb@vex.net | received E-mail from idiots.)" -- Beppi Crosariol My text in this article is in the public domain. > Keith Blakeslee: >>> Another thought is to get a bit out of Boston and up to Essex [quoted text clipped - 29 lines] > every couple of hours. See > <http://www.mbta.com/schedules_and_maps/rail>. The inbound schedule is hourly or better most of the day. Outbound from Boston, the sched is erratic, but it is commuter rail, and from rush hr until late evening the schedule is again hourly or better. Woodmans servers their full menu from lunchtime on, One thing I never thought to ask ARC is if they'll have a car. A car in Boston is no fun even if you really know your way around. However, a day not paying for parking in Boston should easily cover the cost for gas out to Essex (about 35 mi each way), and a few of those lobsters.

See <http://www.mbta.com/schedules_and_maps/rail>. Mark, thanks. Looking at the MBTA, we can take the Rockport line to Gloucester to go to Woodman's and try their clambake? No, we are not planning to have a car. My impression of Boston many years ago on traffic was difficult to navigate. >>>> Keith > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > $24.95. Is this what you mean the clambake? Or, are these just oil > fried food? Yes, the Boston Metro system is called the 'T' and stations are marked with a stylized 'T' symbol. I believe the best terminal for Woodman's is West Gloucester. It's still run by the MBTA, but as commuter rail service, not subway service. You'd take the Newburyport/Rockport line out of Boston, then get off at Gloucester West station. You may have to arrange in advance for a cab up to Woodmans, but it's only about 3 scenic miles away. All trains going in that direction originate at Boston's North Station. As for the menu, you'll have to create your own clambake. Order steamers for an appetizer, and select your lobster while they cook your steamers. If you haven't eaten steamers before, there is a how-to here http://www.newenglandtravelplanner.com/details/food_drink/eat_clams.html There is also a video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQ_GB9MP52A If your group are true seafood lovers, you'll want a lot of steamers. Our family of four gets them by the peck and there are never leftovers. If this is your first experience, you may want to try a smaller order and hold the lobsters until you see how the steamers go over, leaving time to order more steamers. As a note: in the video the lady leaves the best part of the clam stuck to the shell. It's a good idea to get the entire meat of the clam out using a spoon, then pull the foreskin off and start dipping. My wife reminds me that we'll be in the area for a week in September. If you think to remind me through this board before you leave, I'll let you know if we've discovered any thrilling new places. Keith >>>>> Keith >> [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > miles away. All trains going in that direction originate at Boston's > North Station. SNIP>>> Don't even think of going out this way by public transportation. It's not convenient and the above sounds easier than actually doing it. You need to be able to drive there. In that area there are other good seafood restaurants--for example: In Ipswich there is the Clam Box. http://www.ipswichma.com/clambox/ Then one known only to to locals "The Causeway" in Gloucester http://www.capeannweb.com/menus/causeway.htm http://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g41580-d861438-Reviews-Causeway_Res taurant-Gloucester_Cape_Ann_Massachusetts.html Another thing to consider if you have a place to eat--Local market "Market Basket" sells live lobsters (pick the one you want out of the tank) and will steam them for you. Price the other day was $4.99 lb From any one of these you can drive around the area to look around, Gloucester etc MLD. >>>>>> Keith >>> [quoted text clipped - 32 lines] > Gloucester etc > MLD. I tend to agree with MLD that Legal Seafood is touristy, and nobody can disagree that it's a chain. It started out as a decent place over in Cambridge, and was still good when they opened a new place in Back Bay - they had the same sources, separate menus, and all was well. It's when they spread out to the airport, then other airports, then to however many places there are around the country that things went awry. The exact same thing happened with Boston Market. They started out with chicken that they did really well, and gave you great helpings of good sides (like real mashed potatoes), all for a good price. Then they added ham and meatloaf and other things, and were bought out by McDonalds in the process, and the only tie to the original is the name. The chicken is just okay, and most other things aren't. Same with Legal. Clams are foreign substances in a lot of their new markets (as are most of the things on the menu) so they went from fresh to frozen. Cream is hard to store, so they substitute flour (maybe corn starch) in their chowder, and so on down the line. The downside is this: even their 'home office', which I believe is in the same building in Cambridge, has to serve the neutralized stuff they had to come up with to go nationwide. There are a lot of 'old-line' Boston seafood restaurants that aren't what they once were. The No-Name used to be great for roughing it ... more like an indoor picnic than a restaurant, but great food for cheap. Somebody bought it, and now it may be a bit shinier, but the food is mediocre and definitely not cheap. Anthony's Pier 1 is another of those. High priced frozen dinners, I think. If you're a patient person, and have no grudge against the Red Sox, the Boston Globe http://www.boston.com/ has a good food and restaurant section, and possibly an archive. The paper is on and off the list for extinction, so do your digging now, but every professional review allows personal ones, and Boston is a vocal place. I don't know why MLD finds the train to Gloucester difficult. You get on, you get off, just like any other train. Just make sure you're where you want to be at each end. Thousands do it every day. This thread started with the OP looking for a clambake meal, and I've tried to stick with that. Gloucester is definitely a fishing town, but it's also a city of Portuguese immigrants, and the Portuguese offer skills with seafood like no other. For a fabulous Portuguese meal, take the train one more stop to the Gloucester station. If it's dinnerime, just follow your nose to the Azorean. If not, ask, but it's right there. The Causeway can be great, but probably won't be in October when the summer crowds are gone. When the customers are thick, they keep their oil hot and fresh, but when the crowds go I think they re-use it, and are willing to toss a meal in before the oil is ready for it. And it's hardly a locals-only place. Maybe in winter, but the rest of the year, it's all tourists. It's their advertising that says 'Where the locals go' > I don't know why MLD finds the train to Gloucester difficult. You get > on, you get off, just like any other train.

It's their advertising that says 'Where the locals go' Keith, we found MBTA train to Gloucester @ Rockport line very interesting. Can you please recommend a great seafood (preferable clambake NE type) place for us Californians to try? Probably best if it is walking distance from train station. Reading Causeway's dinner menu and Clam Box of Ipswich, their seafood are deep fried or pasta. We have plent of these run of the mill type of fish & chip here in Clifornia, This clambake video this is something we wish to experience: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5426647899697200763&ei=8p1PStK9O4GwqAPt1 akx&q=clambake&hl=en&emb=1&client=firefox-a also, for examples, we think this grilled Portuguese Sardines are great, and we have been trying to find here in California too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VJCvgFAFMM >> I don't know why MLD finds the train to Gloucester difficult. You >> get on, you get off, just like any other train. Just make sure [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > great, and we have been trying to find here in California too > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VJCvgFAFMM To reply to your last question first, the Azorean has grilled sardines and peppers, and there is a place in Cambridge (Atasca, I think) that is noted for them. As for clambakes, I doubt that you'll find a 'real' one in late October, but any lobster place probably has the proper ingredients on their menu. Woodman's is still your best bet up Gloucester way, but Essex Seafood has food that is as good. It's just that Woodman's has what you're looking for, and if you chance upon a warm afternoon, there are outside tables that overlook a beautiful salt marsh. Don't let the cab ride frighten you, it's just a few minutes through a pretty and charming area. Keith > I don't know why MLD finds the train to Gloucester difficult.

The Portuguese restaurants always have a dish that combines clams and pork, and I love things like that. To me, there's no finer meal than a dozen iced Blue Point Oysters followed by a plate of fat Ipswich fried clams. Fried seafood is as ubiquitous to New England as Fried Chicken is to parts of the South, and good fry-pots are known far and wide. >>> I don't know why MLD finds the train to Gloucester difficult.

Thank you Keith. Yes, now we understand. "Steamer" are the experience we Californians does not have much of. Fried stuff are planty. >> I beg your pardon, but Woodman's has a huge lobster pot, and they steam >> and boil lobsters all day, every day.
