I like the Manhattan version but think I prefer New England Clam Chowder a skoosh more . The soups/chowders were one of my favorite things about hunting on the Eastern Shore of Maryland every resteraunt over there had their own special secret recipe for Cream of crab soup . I’m a big big fan of Maryland Cream of Crab soups , not so much She Crab Soup however . Yes sir when I hunted in Maine I ate lobster darn near three times every day and when I hunted in Dorchester county MD I ate a lot of crab be it soup , crab cakes , eggs Chesapeake or some other derivative there of . FWIW I’ve been casing the menus of the eateries in Georgetown SC in anticipation ! Sure I enjoy the shooting but the EATING is quite important also
