After dinner with a friend in Cobble Hill (Brooklyn) last night, we came upon this sign outside PJ Hanley's, a restaurant bar on the corner of Court Street and 4th Place. It was a sign advertising the dinner special for the day: lobster roll and piss clams. PISS CLAMS? It doesn't sound very appetizing, does it?So have you ever had piss clams? Would you be interested to try them?

I just read the link—now I'm hungry.
Piss Clams???I don't think so!!! talk about your bad advertising ....I think this is it!
j'adore les clams, enfin j'adore tous les fruits de mer. par contre, je sais pas ce que veux dire "Piss".
Bon appétit et bon weekend
I love clams, finally I love all seafood by cons, I know not what want to say "Piss."
Bon appetit and good weekend
OMG! Gives "please pass the vinegar" new meaning.
I thought it must be an error! Glad you gave the link.
Fortunately you made the link! Yes, now I would like to try!

Piss clams, no. Crusty crabs, yes.
Really liked yesterday's photo. Sammy looks like he could cook up heaven and put it on a plate.
I don't think so Ming ..never heard of these kind of clams.....I'll have to do some research...if I don't find them, I will think this a "gimmic" and it worked...look at all the attention they are getting :)
What's next? Dung frijoles?
Couldn't resist checking out the link. Never heard of them by that name - and I grew up in Maine. But there it is - on the link and another link from Google: weloveclams...... But advertised like that? Hmmmmmm.
Happy summer week-end. Is it beach time in NYC? Really hot in CA.

maybe I'd try them after I'd had a Corona Bucket from the place next door.
I'm not a great fan of clams... piss style or otherwise!
But I like clam chowder.
I tried to send the comment 3 times... it didn't seem to go through, so my humble apologies if you get 3 comments to same!
Hmm, no thanks...I just ate. I'm sure of it.
Thanks for educating me on piss clams :-)
Elliot had linguine and clams the other night for dinner, though I don't think they were piss clams.
I have never heard of this. But next time a client invites me to lunch, I'll make sure to order this.
Piss clams! Nah! Some days I'm so glad I'm veggie and I'm not taking the piss clam.
I think I will try piss clams. :-)
but lobsters, I think I might give it a miss after watching discovery channel.
Piss clams are just long necked steamers. They call them piss clams because if you step on them, they squirt
