I will say the vegetable beef was quite good, especially accompanied by a nice glass of Dunham Cellars' Three Legged Red...

Last time through I moaned to the SEA bartender that I've never experienced the much-touted chowder. He replied: "Don't feel too bad - we only have it a couple of times a month." He then went on to say that they are considering rotating in a few new choices; I pushed him as to details, and he came up with "prime rib" and "pumpkin" (waxing enthusiastic over the latter).

It seems like Friday was a chowder day...

But if a chowder hound, skip it and head to Ivars

Funny you should mention chowder, I was in North Dakota the other day, and was offered a soup with a Germanic name I cannot recall for lunch, which I ordered upon being advised "it's creamy chicken and dumplings". What arrived was better described as "inland chowder" substituting those items for seafood (clams) and potato - not bad, but a bit disconcerting.

Hmm! Sounds like a chowder I could actually eat and appreciate, given that clams violate my food rules...
