This dish is popular with all the people with hangovers in Baja. Will it cure what ails you? I don’t know; you went on the bender, not me. My friends at Crosby’s Crabs helped me put the ingredients together, and while it’s not authentic, it is tasty. (The original uses a special pacific clam.) This is sea forward and great for a brunch. Don’t worry, I cooked all the seafood. I hope you like it.
