OT: Shellfish

[mauconnfan]

I'm really picky about my seafood but Stop & Shop had an insane deal on Stonington scallops several weeks ago that were incredible. My wife bought a few large containers of them and froze them in several freezer sandwich bags. We're still eating them and they are still incredibly good.

Little OT here but I know you know the Mist, look who was there Saturday night as well as the Pub:

especially the Arctic Char.

I ate more shellfish the past week than I have in the previous 2 years. Oysters on the half shell by the dozen in each sitting, same for raw clams, buckets of mussels, fried whole bellies, and my favorite- many buckets of piss clams.

I absolutely love shellfish, especially when I'm not paying.

Very cool! Is that your pic? Did you meet him? Any idea what he was doing in the area?

Yeah it’s pretty much the perfect fish for me. Have had it twice at the Oyster Bar and a few times at Union League in New Haven. Always been excellent.

Looks like Murray ventured off the Vineyard for some pierogies and performing with Steve Smith & the Nakeds at Roy Carpenter’s Beach in Matunuck . Read more below:

Roia had an Arctic Char special on Wednesday night that was outstanding. Avi is a $*#(ing genius, by the way.

So glad to hear that. I worked on Roia for a while during the planning stage. Avi is a super nice guy!

I’m allergic. This whole thread has me in hives.

Me too, I developed the alergy 2 years ago. Man I miss it, used to eat shrimp and oysters once every week. Lucky people.
