EVEN A DIP STIR SO TO TELL US
MORE ABOUT THESE DISHES, I AM
JOINED BY GLEN SHANNON, THE
OWNER OF CLAM DIGGER, LOUNGE AND
PIZZERIA. WELCOME TO THE SHOW.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR COMING
ON. SO FIRST, LET’S GET INTO THE
PIZZA. YOU HAVE ONE WITH
POTATOES ON IT. IS THAT CORRECT?
YES, MA’AM. CAN YOU TELL US
ABOUT IT? SURE THAT IS A VERY
SIMILAR TO A TWICE BAKED POTATO
AND TASTE. OKAY IT’S ESSENTIALLY
A PIZZA. THERE’S NO SAUCE ON IT.
THAT’S THE FIRST THING PEOPLE
ALWAYS ASK. IS THERE SAUCE?
THAT’S A GOOD POINT. SO THIS IS
NO SAUCE. YOU HAVE THE MASHED
POTATOES, CHEESE, BACON AND THEN
BRETT. THAT’S IT. OKAY, SO
THERE’S A COUPLE OF SECRETS WE
HAVE WHEN WE MAKE IT LIKE THAT.
OKAY, THAT DEFINITELY LOOKS LIKE
IT. YOU ALSO HAVE THIS ONE HERE
THAT LOOKS LIKE A BURGER GOT
FLATTENED. KIND OF IT. KIND OF
IT LOOKS TASTES AND SMELLS LIKE
A CHEESEBURGER FROM VERY POPULAR
RESTAURANT. WE WON’T WE WON’T
GIVE AWAY WHO BUT THERE’S THOSE
ARE THE SESAME SEEDS RIGHT
THERE. WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE?
THAT’S THE SCALAWAG. IT’S GOT A
NUMBER OF INGREDIENTS AS WELL AS
GARLIC, AND IT’S GOT TOMATOES
THE PEPPERS. THE MEAT,
MUSHROOMS. UM. IT’S A BIG SELLER
. PEOPLE LIKE IT. VERY NICE, SO
YOU HAVE A LOT OF DIFFERENT
FLAVORS, AND I SKIPPED THIS
QUESTION EARLIER, BUT TELL US
ABOUT THE ATMOSPHERE THERE AT
CLEM DIGGERS BECAUSE YOU GUYS
HAVE A REALLY COOL LOOKING SPOT
AND IT’S RIGHT ON THE WATER.
IT’S A IT’S A COME AS YOU ARE
KIND OF PLACE. VERY CASUAL. UM
PEOPLE COME DRESSED UP AND
DRESSED DOWN, WE GET ALL WALKS
OF LIFE. A LOT OF FUN ON THE
WEEKENDS. WE HAVE, UM UM,
SUNDAYS DURING THE SUMMER. WE
HAVE BANDS LIKE MUSIC OUTSIDE IN
THE SAND. COOL I WILL SAY LIKE
AS SOMEONE WHO GREW UP. MY
PARENTS HAD A CABIN ON THE LAKE.
I LOVED RESTAURANTS YOU COULD
VOTE TO. THERE’S JUST SOMETHING
SO FUN ABOUT THOSE KIND OF
PLACES. EVERYONE IS JUST JUST A
LITTLE BIT MORE RELAXED THAN
NORMAL. EVERYONE’S KIND OF LIKE
HAPPY TO JUST HAVE A GOOD TIME.
NOW LET’S TALK ABOUT SOMETHING
CALLED AND OYSTER. THERE’S AN
OYSTER AND A DIP STIR. WHAT ARE
THESE TWO THINGS? AND I THINK
THAT RIGHT HERE, CORRECT.
CORRECT THIS. THIS ONE IS THE
PHILLY TIPSTER. NOW INCIDENTALLY
, ALL THREE OF THESE GANGSTER
DIP STIR. THOSE ARE ALL CALZONES
. OKAY CALZONES, AND HE SLICED
THEM UP. HE SLICED THEM UP THE
PHILLY TIPSTERS THE FIRST ONE,
AND IT’S GOT ROAST BEEF, GREEN
PEPPERS, ONIONS AND THE
MOZZARELLA CHEESE. AND THEN AND
THEN YOU DIP THEM. I TAKE IT IN
THESE IN THESE SAUCES. YES ON
THIS ONE. YOU WOULD. THIS IS THE
MARINARA SAUCE AND BELIEVE IT OR
NOT, I FORGOT TO BRING THE
JUICES FOR THAT ONE FOR THE
PHILLY CHEESESTEAK, WHICH MAKES
SENSE. YOU HAVE THE MARINARA FOR
THIS ONE, WHICH IS THE INKSTER.
SO IT HAS BACON AT IT. I GUESS
IT’S GOT BACON AND CHEESE.
THAT’S RIGHT. NICE AND THEN THE
LAST ONE OVER HERE. I DON’T KNOW
IF WE CAN GET IT ON CAMERA. NOT
BUT WHAT’S THAT ONE? THAT’S THE
PLAIN CHEESE DIP STIR VERY NICE,
VERY GOOD, AND THEY’RE GOOD,
WITH OR WITHOUT THE SAUCE,
ACTUALLY, AND A LOT OF PEOPLE
DON’T EVEN USE THE ARGUE EVEN
THOUGH THE A JEW IS REALLY GOOD.
WELL LET’S OKAY. YOU GOTTA ASK
WHY THE NAME THE CLAM DIGGER AND
JASON COME IN HERE FOR THIS
QUESTION, BECAUSE I WANT SUPPORT
. WHAT WHAT IS A CLAM DIGGER
DIGGER IS A METSA SPICED UP
BLOODY MARY. AH YOU’RE A FAN OF
THOSE, RIGHT? YES OF COURSE
THERE. UM UM, THAT WAS WHAT WE
DIDN’T NAME THE CLAM DIGGER WHEN
I BOUGHT THE PLACE IN 1998. IT
WAS ALREADY NAMED THE CLAM
DIGGER AND I SAW NO WISDOM AND
CHANGING THE NAME IT WAS. IT’S A
FUN NAME. IT’S A IT’S A GOOD
NAME. EVERYBODY KNEW WHERE WE
