Food miracles

From as far back as I can remember, I have always loved seafood. I love the texture, the zesty flavor, just makes my mouth water. It doesn't matter how it is cooked, I just enjoy eating it. My favorite seafood is without a doubt, steamed clams with butter. Now that by itself would satisfy me on any day but one time, and one time only, I had it at a resturaunt in such a way thati have been wanting to taste it again ever since.

About two years ago I was in westport with some of the family and they happened to suggest a local resturaunt that was on the water and was notorious for having some of the finest seafood around. Now me being the ignorant child that I was, thought nothing of it and played on my phone until dinner time came. When we left, the everyone was in a tizz. They had to be dressed properly, and had to look nice with the make up and the perfume and what not. I just grabbed my favorite black hoodie and got in the car before anyone else. Once we arrived at the resturaunt everyone got out of the car and we were seated quickly because we had reservations. Most of them knew what they wanted, while I, had not a clue. The menu was so large that it took me several minutes just to skim it. After several visits from the waiter, I had placed my order. I decided to go with a special kind of pasta noodle that is long and very thin. This was served with butter and of course, steamed clams. The food took quite a while to arrive but it was worth the wait ten fold. The clams were just visible under a deep rich layer of soft warm pasta that was gradually pooling a vat of butter in its depths. first bite was a medium sized portion of pasta wrapped around the fork with a steamed clam on the end of the prongs acting as a stopper. One bite was all it took. I am a light eater at heart and always have been but even after snacking previously, I was not going to waste this meal. There was butter and clam sauce in the plate, a littel bit of a spice that I'm not familiar with, and of course the clam / pasta mix. Now normally I am a clean eater, but you can bet that there was butter all over the freaking napkin after the meal was done. Magnificent. Saying it was a simply and purely a fantastic meal would not to this heavenly bliss any justice at all.
