well- I've posteds this topic before. WHat I got back was : clamming is legal for Mexicans only and you don't want to eat the ones between rosarito
and ensenada anyway.

When I suggested that clamming in remote places wasn't a big deal I was made the object of ridicule and scorn by some of my Nomad bretheren
(sisteren).
I agree with woooosh, I wouldn't eat the clams in that area either....dt

I don't know of any place that serves fried clams.... however, you can get the best barbequed clams (Almejas al Carbon) at Cocteleria Mazatlan in
Ensenada - on 10th Avenue across from the bus station. Ask anyone in town, they will know. You must also try their Osteones al Carbon (bbq'd
oysters). Not too sure about the spelling of osteones... Lots of garlic and cheese, and other things, on these creations. To die for!
Here is an old thread on this place...

Whole belly fried clams! Nantasket Beach. Yum. Yes, you are indeed from New England- everyone else knows and eats only "clam strips". I've never
seen whole-belly fried clams or any other fried clams in Baja Norte. Not sure why.
Although I don't clam myself, I do buy them sometimes from my neighbors who do. I don't eat the local ones raw- but I do grind the large Quohaugs up
to make baked stuffed clams.

it's cause i haven't arrived yet. i will meet and become friends with the owner of a baja eaterie and ask him/her if they can just dip them in flour
or breadcrumbs and they will have a best seller...yes! yes! yes!
and yeah, i sure miss the maine lobster stuffed with lobster too! .

Its a little farther south but the chocolate clams that santiago makes at Restaurant Playa Pichulingue are killer and the atmosphere isn't to bad
either.

You will always miss the "real" lobster. The local critters are not the same in species or taste. Lobster rolls? Nada aqui.
CostCo sometimes gets bags of live Maine "steamer clams" which can be shucked and used for frying. I'm glad peolpe had places for baked, bbq and
stuffed clams and oysters- but as you know- there's nothing like a whole belly fried clam.

are u saying fried clams cannot be made with clams from baja? there is a stand in la fonda that sells fish tacos and i asked her if they had fried
clam tacos, and she held up a clam and asked if i meant that and then said yes. perhaps she couldn't understand what i wanted. next time i will ask
her to make one. also, there is a restaurant across the street from maganas and i was told she would have whatever her to make...we shall see.
