Coming this weekend! WCOD’s Chowder Festival!

• Marshlands Restaurant – Sandwich
• British Beer Co. – Falmouth Heights and Hyannis and many other locations which just makes me feel all suspect about their potential. We reviewed them last year and were not impressed but always worth another taste or ten.
• Buster’s Best Sandwiches – in Dennisport.
• Captain Parker’s (which won last year and is well known for it’s awesomeness) – in West Yarmouth
• Booster’s Bar and Grill – in Forestdale. I admit it. I had no idea where Forestdale was until I googled it. Smack dab in the middle of the Upper Cape? Near Otis? Huh.
• Tommy Doyle’s – Of Harvard Square, Kendall Square and Hyannis.
• Wee Packet Restaurant – in Dennisport. No web site. Which isn’t even kind of an issue.
• Artie’s Cafe – in Falmouth…
• Harry’s Blues Bar & Cajun – in Hyannis. I have a baaaaaadddd feeling about this. You can’t judge a chowder by the web site but I have to say that this cajun thing alongside “Mexican Monday” doesn’t bode well. Just like how we tried tortilla soup at Tigin and Clams Fra Fiablo at the Irish Club, I don’t want my chowder from a place that excels in Cajun food and an occassional Mexican night. Though…to be fair. Cajun night at the Irish Club was pretty tasty.
• The Lobster Boat in W. Yarmouth. This is one of those places we always see on the annual Nauset-trampolines-A&W-Papa Gino’s-MiniGolf-Four Seas excursion and always think…maybe some other time. Hurrah for a taster and being excused from it this year.

So we’re ready. We have our spoons out and are ready to start judging.
