Clam chowder, The Needle. Seattle, WA. USA.
K and I had been lucky enough to get a last minute booking at the revolving restaurant at the top of The Needle. Fantastic value, amazing food. Despite K's outstanding ability to knock over drinks down the revolving wall (therefore dribbling tomato juice around the edge of the entire restaurant), we managed to stay for three mouth watering courses. My first: smoked clam chowder.
Rich, creamy, but still light enough to be able to face more food afterwards, this is what chowders should be all about. Every single mouthful had a new flavour, which, given the ingredients, was almost as impressive as the view.
