Almejas fritas. There is a small place at the side of the road a few miles south of Ensenada called Mariscos Sinaloaense that does magical things
with osteones and almejas. Don't know if it's still there but it should be 
carpe diem!

It will say 'Bobby's by the Sea". Not every kilometer is marked. It's less than 1/8th mile south of the Puerto Nuevo toll road exit. Ocean
side of the free road.

Hi Diana you can also dig them at the mercado negro in ensenada. I usually buy mine there and are good quality (chocolatas are good) and you prepare
them the way you want. Also if you like mussels there is aquaculture ones called aqualap just behind the mercado negro and they have a restaurant
(muelle 13) under the procesing plant. You can buy them there ask for Juan Carlos

You can fry oysters too, but I think she is looking for a New England style fried whole-belly clam. The clams used are small soft-shell clams with
long necks- they are very sweet.
The big ones get tough if you fry them. I'm looking forward to her follow-up report. I'll bet it's like searching for a san diego style carne asada
burrito in Phoenix.

dianaji- regarding km43 and other km markings along the road,
MX1 is pretty well marked with km markers like mileage markers in the US, but you can't guarantee the one you want will be there. But you'll know to
be watching from km40 on out and it won't be hard to find most places. Where it could be difficult is if you were looking for a dirt track to the
beach and it was at km 87.3.......that kind of thing.....
take lots of pics!

thanks, i was wondering what the markers meant... i have so much to learn and having fun doing it...also finding new foods, nurseries
and yes, i will try that bobby's by the sea...how can i resist. ever since moving from miami many years ago, i have not found one good place for
fried clams...they were also good there, along with the lobster. and the cuban food was absolutely unforgettable.
pictures of what? clams???

well, i was wrong...I went to the pot luck At first I thought it would be a typical American thing...and to my surprise they had chicken wings, a
huge plate of shrimp, guacamole, chips, oriental dishes, fried rice, empanadas, salads, whipped cream cakes and pies, strawberries dipped chocolate,
much more...the food kept coming in. There was tons of liquor, lots of tequila! Maybe I should drink after all...
There were people from different countries, Japan, Korea, Chile, u name it. The peaple were very nice, conventional types (no new agers, just me).
The sweet oriental girls were so nice and cordial, polite and friendly. All in all it was a great party.

If the clams from Rosarito to Ensenada shouldn't be eaten, (I wouldn't eat them,either) then you want to make very sure where the local restaurants in
that area get their clams. I'd be willing to bet a fair chunk of change that they buy them locally. Why would they buy imported clams for 100 pesos
when they can buy locally from their friends for 70 pesos ??
Twice in the past I've run into a situation (in the U.S.) where local products were polluted and local people would get angry and red in the face if
anyone dared suggest anything was wrong with the product. "I've been eating them all along, and I'm fine," is a typical response.
