"The bad news about Sullivan’s on Castle Island is that it’s closed during the winter. The good news is that, from June-September, it’s more quintessentially summer than an American flag tank top. This little clam shack is the only place in the city of Boston where you can eat a box of whole-belly fried clams with your toes in the sand. And while we’re not going to pretend that Pleasure Bay is South Beach (or even the M Street Beach) that’s never a bad thing." - dan secatore
