chowder

Where to eat: Take turns sampling lobster rolls, clam chowder and fish and chips with your hiking buddies at the Lobster Trap or Bluewater Grill.

I have been schooled on many things while spending time along the east coast between Cumberland Island, Georgia and Cape Hatteras, North Carolina — and one such thing is chowder.

“Clam chowder is still one of my favorite foods. I try to eat it all over the world.”

There's a lot of discussion about Rhode Island clam chowder.

In fact, I was gulping some of the Sailing Goat’s excellent clam chowder when my innkeepers’ 22-foot boat puttered up to the dock.
