Where to Eat Clams in New England

The Best Thing I Ate Last Week

I had meals at some amazing places this week on my clam shack tour, but the best clams were at the Clam Box in Ipswich. Woodman’s was a close second, but the ones at Clam Box were perfect. It helped we went at 4pm when no one was there. Frying requires precision. I took the lettuce off my lobster roll.
