Each and every one deserved to be a ChowdaFest Winner! (well, almost everyone!)
We came. We tasted.
We complained because trash cans were placed out of the way in the center of the arena.
There was more than just chowder at this Chowder Fest!
It's a real ChowdaFeast!
We sampled some artisan breads.

We watched souper-bowl picks go in! (LOL)
And met some great people serving wonderful soup for a terrific cause!

We met Chef Quohog and watched the ChowdaKids have some fun!
Chowda Chowda and more Chowda!
ChowdaFest everywhere!
With a little Ben & Jerry's ice cream on the side.
We submitted out Chowda soaked ballots...and hoped our favorite Chowda would win!
Congratulations to the ChowdaFest 2013 Winners!
Missed it? - There's always next year!
I did go! You're a better photographer than me-between the crowds and trying to juggle the spoon, ballot and pencil I couldn't get a decent picture to save my life. My favorite bisque won and my favorite clam chowder came in third. Cant remember the rest and my ballot got anhilated when I spilled soup on it but they accepted it anyway.
ReplyDeleteFun time and I would definitely go again but it will be a while before I feel like eating any chowder :).
Oh I know just what you mean about NOT eating chowder for a while.
DeleteI had my friend Gayle fill out my ballot...and yes, it was covered with chowder drips, as was my phone that I was using to tweet pictures out!
I fell walking in (remember to listen to people saying "watch your step") - and my friend fell leaving, as we were crossing the street to the parking. We were a complete ChowdaMess! But what a fun time!
At least I fell on the way out so I could still enjoy all the chowder. Had a fun time as always. Thanks Bonnie
ReplyDeleteHey Gayle! Glad you weren't badly hurt! Thank for being the official scorer!
DeleteOMG what planet am I on? Can you believe I never tasted chowder before! You make me want to visit Connecticut!
ReplyDeleteOh chowder is good! You must try it. Any place in New England usually serves some good ones!
Deletei was def interested in this event! but it was on super bowl sunday - already a day of eats for me. glad you had fun!
ReplyDeleteThat's why I went early...but I couldn't eat anything for the rest of the day. WOW! Chowder is filling!
DeleteMade me miss all those football favorites, buffalo wings, nachos, etc.
Guess I was better off with the chowder, now that I think about it! (chuckle)
Hope you had a super Superbowl Sunday!
