Seafood in Salem, MA
Salem was a seaport long before it was Witch City. Ships out of this harbor traded around the world in the late 1700s and early 1800s, and the waterfront still shapes how the city eats. Fried clams, lobster rolls, chowder and raw oysters are the North Shore basics, and you can find all of them here.
