Every year my family and 20 or so friends get together to cook a real New England clam bake. This is the kind that you cook right in the sand. It’s a great time but involves some real work. I’m talking about digging a pit, hauling rocks, building a fire and prepping all of the great food that will be cooked. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could have that delicious end result without all the hard work? Well now lucky Sarasota diners can do just that.
Here’s the deal. The Lobster Pot on Siesta Key offers their version of a New England clam bake right in their restaurant. For $26.99 you get, a Maine lobster, steamer clams, mussels, red potatoes and corn on the cob. Talk about a feast! And, no work involved for you. Oh, I guess you’ll have to tackle that platter of awesome food, but that’s hardly real work. The staff at The Lobster Pot has done all the tough stuff for you.
So, if you’re in the mood for some authentic New England style seafood cooking and don’t want to go to all of the hassle that doing your own clam bake entails, The Lobster Pot is the place for you. Give it a try and let us know what you think. Oh, don’t forget the bib!
