Definitely New England clam chowder. I'm not sure I'd like Manhatten style. You're just teasing me now with this Hatteras style. I don't think there's a good way to get decently fresh clams to the middle of the country.

I don't have a taste for grits. I finally came around to gravy on my rice, but I'm still iffy on grits.

I'm holding out hope that there's a decent lobster roll around here somewhere. You can get live lobsters here. There's no real reason you couldn't do a good lobster roll.

Lobster Rolls have two styles as well, butter only or with mayonnaise.

Really you just need the right roll, and you can make the butter version yourself.

It’s the roll that is hard to find.

I live in Manhattan and will defend it in all things EXCEPT clam chowder. Manhattan clam chowder is hot garbage.
