The costumer most likely got Paralytic shellfish poisoning from digesting a poisonous shellfish from the sampler The toxins responsible for most shellfish poisonings are water insoluble, heat and acid-stable, and ordinary cooking methods do not eliminate the toxins. The principal toxin responsible for PSP is saxitoxin. Some shellfish can store this toxin for several weeks after a harmful algal bloom passes, but others, such as butter clams, are known to store the toxin for up to two years. Additional toxins are found, such as neosaxiton and gonyautoxins I to IV. All of them act primarily on the nervous system.  

PSP can be fatal in extreme cases, particularly in immunocompromised individuals. Children are more susceptible. PSP affects those who come into contact with the affected shellfish by ingestion. Symptoms can appear ten to 30 minutes after ingestion, and include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, tingling or burning lips, gums, tongue, face, neck, arms, legs, and toes. Shortness of breath, dry mouth, a choking feeling, confused or slurred speech, and loss of coordination are also possible.

What is difference between boiling and simmering​
Fantom [35]

Boiling water is water that's bubbling at 212ºF. ... Simmering, on the other hand, is slower than that nice bubbling boil. It's still very hot—195 to 211ºF—but the water in this state isn't moving as quickly and isn't producing as much steam from evaporation. Simmering water is great for soups, broths and stews.
