You are technically correct, but we posted this based on the title of the dish listed on the menu.

Still yummy.

Not the same. No pit, no coals, no seaweed, no canvas. Can't be done in a kitchen. That’s not a clam bake, that’s a clam boil. Not the same. No pit, no coals, no seaweed, no canvas.

"Heaping pile" was a gross overstatement of the amount of shellfish that was in the pot, and even the potatoes and corn were in short supply. I'd prefer if they skipped the lobster, piled in more clams, mussels and fixins, and dropped the price by $10.
