While I am usually a purist when it comes to toppings, I admit I love a good
clam pie.  That’s what I was thinking when I saw one on the menu of this
Mario Batali Restaurant in Las Vegas.  While I had a reservation, the
restaurant was “hawking menus” to everyone passing by and was very surprised
when I brushed the menu away and insisted I did, in fact, plan on eatingthere.  This was not a very well run restaurant.  Service just seemed
awkward and off.  When I finally got the pizza though, I had to laugh.  Just
LOOK at the picture!  How is someone supposed to eat a pizza with SHELLS on
it.  I folded the slice and jokingly tried to eat it.  I had to pick the
shells out of the hot cheese?  This was completely ridiculous.  Again, look
at the picture.  0 of 8 slices.
