We know they serve great beer, but who serves Portland's best clam chowder?
A dozen pubs and restaurants will contend at the third annual Chowder Challenge
WHAT
The third annual Chowder Challenge
The public is invited to sample New England-style clam chowders (no Manhattan allowed) from a dozen area brewpubs and restaurants. The chowders are served up in non-labeled, two-ounce cups. After tasting all entries, attendees vote for their favorite. The chowder receiving the most votes is named the People's Choice Winner and takes home the coveted Chowder Cup. Celebrity judges determine the winners of the other three categories: Most Authentic, Most Flavorful and Best with Beer.
