There are two types of traditional chowders, one is cream based (white) and the other tomato based(red/manhattan).

"New England clam chowder? Is that the red or the white?"
(its great obtaining culinary knowledge from Ace Ventura Pet Detective ).

Except if it's New England, it's Chowdah.

New England = White.
Red Chowder is against the 11 commandments.

Bisques are delicious, just need to know someone that knows how to make them properly. The goal to any soup/chowder/bisque is maximizing flavour/concentration through every step. With either reduction, deglazing the pot and pans to extract any "fond", caramelization/browning and proper seasoning.

No, there aren't. The former exists, the latter does not. Or, rather, should not.

I am not a fan of tomato based, "Manhattan" style chowders either.

I have only found one red chowdah I liked... It is available at The Crab Cooker in Newport or Irvine, CA. Otherwise I prefer the white variety, and usually home-made at that.

Wasn't it New England style clam chowdah that kept spitting at Curly?

With the weather being so bone chilling cold lately, a steaming hot bowl of clam chowder would really hit the spot.

For an obscure, yet yummy chowder, may I suggest a recipe from the city in which I was raised.

St. Augustine Florida, the oldest city in the states.

It's Minorcan!
