On a cold day, warm up with some chowder or opt for a super-fresh lobster roll at this rustic, no-frills, year-round fish market in Menemsha. Or go the whole hog for sunset-watching and get a full lobster clambake feast ($55): two 1¼lb cooked lobsters, soup, coleslaw and a choice of either mussels, steamers or shrimp.
