Having lived in San Diego, I’ve been to my share of bonfires, but never to a clam bake. I guess it’s more of an East coast thing to do, and now I know what I’ve been missing! We heard about this fantastic event through a friend and promptly signed up. We arrived in time to make some new friends and enjoy a few pre-dinner drinks (none for me, since I was the driver for the night). As the sun was setting, the food arrived - freshly steamed clams, mussels, lobsters and corn on the cob! What a decadent feast. Afterwards, we enjoyed clear skies and bright stars, bonfires and s’mores, quite a perfect summer night in the Hamptons.

Mussels and clams and lobsters, oh yum!
I could only fit this much on my plate. This did not stop me from shamelessly going back for more clams and mussels. A few times.
Lobster makes Heather savage.
Paige had a friendly lobster.
