A colleague told me about Essex - a small hamlet near Cape Ann where they serve up the freshest seafood. We went to "The Village" - nothing to look at but full to the seams with locals and visitors. Obviously, it's the worst-kept secret in Massachusetts. We got there at 2.30pm but still had to wait an hour for our table.
Lobster is expensive this year but nothing can beat fresh littleneck clams! These are simply steamed - you remove the black "jacket" at the tip, wiggle them around in the broth to clear any sand particles, dip in clarified butter and pop them in your mouth!
