"Their clam chowder is intentionally reduced until almost solid—thick, creamy and intensely briny—built from heavy cream and fresh clam stock with chopped clams, shallots, celery and fingerling potatoes. The bowl is finished with whole clams in the shell, a fried clam floater and crispy lardon for extra texture; the kitchen embraces an earthy, hearty, no-frills style rather than any attempt at elegance." - Adam H. Callaghan
