Which area has the best seafood? (life, people)

[gladhands]

In terms of both ingredients and cuisine.

[Mr. Joshua]

This is gonna be good. Seafood pride is very strong.

Personally I go New England. I know, wicked shocka!

Boy, this is tough. I LOVE New England seafood (lobster, stripers, etc.), but the Pacific Northwest is super strong too. I also love blue crab along the Chesapeake Bay. I guess if I had to choose:

PNW
NE
Gulf Coast
Chesapeake

[American Expat]

I went with the Gulf Coast but I also love the PNW Salmon & Halibut.

[BaskingIguana]

As much as I love the seafood in New England, the seafood I ate in the PNW just impressed me. Maybe I had great guides.

[SouthernBoy205]

Gulf Coast hands down. With cities like Mobile, Houston, and New Orleans, it's hard to beat!

[AJNEOA]

I think a lot of it has to do with what you grow up around, at least for those who grew up near one of these sources. While Mid Atlantic isn't on the list, I love the scallops and mussels because I've been eating them my whole life.

The Gulf is home to my favorite seafood.

I've heard it said, in fact many people are saying, the Great Lakes is the "Third Coast", I don't know but that's just what people are saying
