The only place in the US I've had whelk or sea snails as it's called here was in a local Portuguese bar on Cape Cod and only regular customers were told about it. Cooked in butter & garlic with linguisa (spicy Portuguese sausage)....yummy.sarah bailey knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08748376721447408580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-8723791650373402072015-02-16T23:55:44.766+08:002015-02-16T23:55:44.766+08:00Hi Bill --

BTW, last night, I had whelk cooked in butter with scallops and asparagus --YTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-69178404490210360592015-02-16T20:39:42.828+08:002015-02-16T20:39:42.828+08:00Hi YTSL,

(Well, food is a kind of universal language.)...Since I like seafood, the Tsubugai (whelk) Sashimi looksB especially inviting. Obviously, this was a meal worth photographing and remembering.<br /><br />Bill<br />Billnoreply@blogger.com
