ESSEX, MASSACHUSETTS: Welcome to Essex, Massachusetts, home to Woodman’s, where they invented the New England style deep fried clam! During our trip to New England we were not going to miss this opportunity to eat the king of deep fried seafood, and we got a gigantic $284.75 Fisherman’s Platter!

Woodman's of Essex (g.page/woodmansofessex?share) Total price - $284.75 - We arrived to Woodman's of Essex, ready to devour some deep fried seafood. As the true story goes, back in 1916 Lawrence "Chubby" Woodman and his wife Bessie had a cart and sold fresh clams and deep fried potato chips. One day one of his fisherman friends told him to deep fry some clams in the potato chip oil. It was almost a joke - they said it was something humorous, but after trying it, they realized they might be onto something. They invented and popularized the fried clam. To this day, the original fried clam is available at Woodman's of Essex and it’s as good as it’s ever been.
At Woodman’s they also have a host of other deep fried seafood, including clam strips, scallops, shrimp, and fish, plus onion rings and fries. We decided to order a huge fisherman’s platter, including a mix of everything piled high onto Jeffrey’s lobster tray.
While all the seafood at Woodman's of Essex is delicious and remarkably deep fried and crispy, still nothing beats the deep fried clams - the original deep fried clams.
Kelly's Roast Beef (goo.gl/maps/9fiUWiJMWFYnz4Y98) Price - $14.02 meal combo - next up on this mini tour, just down the Massachusetts coast I stopped at Kelly's Roast Beef, legendary for their roast beef sandwich. It was every bit as good as I was hoping it to be and everything it needed to be. Don’t miss it when you visit Massachusetts!

My gallbladder needs to come out just by watching this too.

[@JP1NYC]

@@anasandoval6698 what does that mean?

[@marcostudd]

@@JP1NYC 😂😂

[@anasandoval6698]

@@JP1NYC the gallbladder is an organ found by the liver that connects to the liver and pancreas via ducts (think of it like a balloon bellow the liver that can inflate and deflate as needed). It helps the liver produce and store bile (a type of acidic acid) that turns fat into fatty acids that your body can digest and absorb. Overconsumption of fatty foods such as fried foods can cause an accumulation of cholesterol in the body and in the gallbladder. If the gallbladder can't break these fats quickly they turn into gallstones (think of these as stones of various shapes and sizes that cannot be digested by your body nor escape the gallbladder, they just keep accumulating). You then essentially have a balloon (the gallbladder) full of them that will overtime get bigger and accumulate. They don't go anywhere, they just stay in this balloon. Since the balloon can no longer deflate and inflate as it used to because now they always have stones inside, if the stones are large enough they can block the duct to the pancreas and liver limiting the amount of bile that is excreted to these organs. This is not a good thing as you can experience severe discomfort and referred pain; meaning the right side of your upper belly won't be hurting but instead you'll feel pain and discomfort on your right shoulder/scapula for no apparent reason (that's referred pain). Worst case scenario, the gallbladder bursts inside your body spilling bile into your abdominal cavity which can lead to sepsis (blood poisoning) and if left untreated it can kill you. If the gallbladder is removed through surgery or laparoscopy you can 100% live without it, but you cannot consume fried foods in such big quantities (such as in this video) as you'll feel extremely grossed out, you'll feel like you need to puke, or will get diarrhea because your body cannot break down the fats into fatty acids anymore.

Jeffrey does it again in this piece, as he muttered. “Mmmm a Mountain”., after gorging a huge fried platter of fish filled with his handfuls of food-to-belly treats. Great stuff!

[@Mardasee]

When I was a kid I spent my summers on Cape Cod. In the town of Yarmouth there was a place called "Jerry's" on Rte 28. I used to work there serving ice cream and peeled onions for the onion rings. Jerry's use to have the best fried clams around. People would travel for miles to get them. I would go into the walk in cooler to get things and while inside I would peer at the clams inside the small container they were packed in. They were still alive and wiggling. The secret to good fried clams is hot hot grease. "Jerry's" is still there but Jerry himself is no longer the owner. Jerry was a workaholic during the summer months who worked sixteen hours a day seven days a week. He could be cranky too. When summer season ended his relatives would run the store during off season and his wife would not let him step foot inside the store. Jerry and his wife were good people.

[@Mardasee]

@Kaisa Islamova I'll explain, stupid. Jerry's seafood was number 1 on Cape Cod at one time.

[@Rotund_Panda_Pants]

Yes, that is a lot of money lol I live right on the southern Maine coast and I can assure you that is a lot of money. You can get a fisherman’s platter at Ken’s place, Clam Bake, Bay Haven or many other places for a quarter of the price. Granted everything is inflated in Massachusetts and people will pay it. I personally thin fried clams are gross. Most clam necks and bellies with sand in them.

Mark is such a sweetheart and it's always a joy to watch him. I was surprised with that massive of a platter, individual plates were not offered, lemon slices, more sauce and malt vinegar, etc. Am I the only one that kind of wondered about that?

[@Ladyglittersparkless94]

Now that you’ve mentioned it I’m wondering the same.

I too thought that they were very stingy with the sauces.

[@singbike5832]

I hope they gave him a discount...honestly, even if they gave it to him for free it would be money well spent considering how much free advertising they're getting.

Native New Englander here and nothing beats a true New England's Fisherman's platter!!! You should check out Rhode Islands coast for sea food, claim cakes and chowder!!! Too bad that Rocky Point Park is not open anymore in Rhode Island, they had the best claim cakes and chowder! Thanks for sharing!

I know! I’m from Portland, Maine, living in Texas the last 30 plus years, and I can’t wait to go home every year to eat Lobsta, fried scallops, fried clams, haddock, Lobsta rolls, and all things seafood ! Best shellfish in America, maybe the world! Non seafood, got to have some delicious Italian sandwiches from Amato’s in Portland, Maine! I’m salivating !

[@Ajm2894]

My first job was at this restaurant. I bussed tables and brought in the clams and lard to be added to the fryers. The best was the free food we would get at the end of our shift. I have many good memories of Essex and my high school years. Cheers to all my high school friends. Good times!

[@dgreen8388]

As someone who works in a restaurant, (I've waited tables for 12 years) I can tell you right now if a customer came and offered me a platter of 1 hour old fried food that had been picked over by strangers' hands, I would laugh in their face. There's no way that staff was THRILLED to eat their cold leftovers. I'm sorry but you guys ordered way too much food. I'm not a hater. I've been watching Mark for years and this is the first negative thing I've ever commented.

[@loveplaysgames2258]

Well maybe they didn’t eat it themselves but they can give it to the homeless and re-heat it Or at least someone who wants it I mean they paid for it should they have thrown it away instead?

[@tonytowers5889]

That platter was disgusting.

[@BLAM777]

Definitely agree with you. Not a chance I would eat that.

[@clveharrison3434]

Who would want to eat it after they had moved it about with their hands did any one see them wash their hands at any time.

[@kittymoore2776]

I absolutely love New England and the availability of fresh seafood. It would be well worth the cost of what you ordered. My husband is from New Hampshire and grew up eating fried clams and lobster rolls. I on the other hand grew up in Mississippi and never had a clue what these delights were all about. When I ventured to the North country for the first time to meet my in-laws, my mother-in-law took us to Wells Beach Main for a week. I was in fresh seafood heaven. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video.

you never went to New Orleans? c'mon the best fish anywhere

Mike’s clam Shack has a good seafood platter in Wells. I grew up in Sanford, Maine. The next town over.

Yes, I have been to New Orleans many times as an adult and yes the seafood there is wonderful. As a career soldier I traveled the world and never went back to Mississippi.

Fried seafood is my ultimate guilty pleasures. My interpretation of good seafood is based wholly on my personal experience living in the deep south. I've never eaten seafood in the New England region. Given the proximity to some of the best harvesting waters in our country, I'd assume the seafood is top-notch. I'm going to plan a trip just for this. Now, when it comes to bbq though...

They could have worn plastic gloves or tongs to put on their own plate. It would have been a lot more hygienic that way. I cringed when I saw him put his fingers into his mouth then dig into the plate for fish.
