Mine is Chick's Drive-In of West Haven. It faces the beach and the clams (I get clam strips) are out of this world!!! The side of clam strips is $12 but it's 2 meals. :eek:

Joe's Crab Shack in Orlando Florida. Not only is the food to die for but the atmosphere is awesome too. (Although I prefer muscles to clams)
Too bad I am broke & they don't deliver to NY.

I love clam chowder soup and clam dip but I don't think I'd have them fried. ;)

Sorry, Donna. I'm no help. The only clams we see in the south are those fried clam strips and I can't stand them! :o When we were in Massachusetts, I had fried clams and it was the whole thing. That was gross too! This from a person who loves fried oysters! :p

I second the vote for Ronnies! Yum, Yum, Yum - you inland folks just don't know what you're missing. And you can get a side of deep-fried mushrooms, too! Then, if you're not overful, head across the parking lot to their ice cream stand.

Their like very fine strips fried to a golden brown and they chew like thin rubberbands with just a taste of tartar sauce. But the taste?? Nothing else like it! :p I'm hungry.

I'd say that's just about enough "edumication" for me!

:p

They are chewy. That's what I don't like about clam strips. When I had the whole fried clam in Plymouth, MA , it tasted like I was eating sand. Everything else was wonderful, there!

I don't "hate" them. I just have seafood choices that I enjoy a lot more. And we have a lot of fresh seafood in SC. Clams aren't here, though.

I have a few places....Hank's Dairy Bar in Plainfield, CT and if I'm in Mystic then it's the Sea Swirl...but I like clam strips not the whole belly clams. :)
