Chowderfest 2017 – SFF Top Picks

February 3, 2017

Well, it’s here again. It’s time for another Chowderfest, and I feel like it was just yesterday that I drowned myself in 21 dairy-heavy cups of chowder at the last one.

This year, I am not quite as ambitious as I was last year, primarily because every year I get older, the worse I feel when I eat copious amounts of chowder.

But because I love you guys so much and I know how many of you like to see my updates throughout the day, I will still be out and about and will try AT LEAST 10 chowders. There’s my promise to you.

So where am I looking to hit up this year based on what they’ll be serving? Here are my top picks for Chowderfest 2017:

Airstream Catering – Andouille, Bacon & Poblano Chowder

Boca Bistro – Bacon & corn clam chowder w/ a cheddar biscuit

Brook Tavern – Caribbean sweet potato chowder

Campagna Restaurant – Italian corn & sausage chowder

Dunning Street Station – Shrimp & lobster chowder w/ bacon shrimp toast garnish

Hattie’s Restaurant – Fried chicken & tasso chowder

The Local – Vermont heady chowder

Moby Rick’s (serving at Savory Pantry) – Thai-curry soup w/ shrimp & scallops

Peabody’s – New England clam chowder

Salt & Char – Shrimp, clam & chorizo chowder w/ herbed oyster crackers

Honorable Mentions:

Druther’s & Comfort Kitchen – Both of these restaurants are musts for me every year, but they like to keep what they’re serving TOP SECRET for whatever reason. So we’ll just have to wait and see what they’re serving tomorrow!

There you have it, my top 10 picks plus 2 honorable mentions.
