Pike Place Chowder
No trip to Pike Place Market is complete without a cup of thick, creamy chowder. With at least half a dozen types of chowders to choose from at Pike Place Chowder, and being my usual indecisive persona, the best thing to do was to get the sampler—4 4-ounce cups of any of their chowders (making that decision about which 4 chowders to try wasn’t easy either). Sourdough rolls are included, and if that doesn’t fill you up for the rest of the day (highly unlikely, considering the Smoked Salmon Chowder), they’ve also got huge Dungeness crab or shrimp sandwiches. Using fresh Pacific Northwest seafood, it’s no surprise that they’ve won numerous chowder cook-offs around the nation. But I would skip their Chili Chowder.
