The one in Bristol is tops.

We have a stand down the road that i visit every afternoon, starting July1-Sept 30, to get corn for supper.
Secret is to get it in the pot as soon as it's picked before the sugar turns into starch.
Another old secret, take a sharp knife and cut each row from end to end before buttering.
The kernels just open up as you knaw, letting the butter and juices flow.

Butter and Sugar; shuck it and grill it nekkid with a little butter and salt and pepper. Wait for some of the kernels to carmelize. I'll never boil or steam corn again..
PS the ears that you don't eat, cut the kernels from them , freeze and save for your chowders. A quantum leap in flavor...
