Next Stop - Chowder and Humbow {Tour of Pike Place Market Part 5}

Right next to our meatball lover place is the famous Pike Place Chowder House. We like it because A) we get to use our entertainment guide coupon and B) it's just good. Nothing beats a sourdough bread bowl and chowder on a cool day. or a sunny day. or whenever. It is very similar to Ivar's which is super popular around here, but I have to admit that I like the bread bowl at this place better, not to mention this hot spot has won some SERIOUS awards. If I won the "Great Chowder Cook-off," you better be sure that you wouldn't here the end of it. I'd probably make you do my laundry for a year or something. And you would, wouldn't you? (mwa-ha-ha)

Our Top Picks off the Menu:

-Clam Chowder, obviously

-Seafood Bisque, pictured above

*We also like the variety of chowders. From Vegan to Southwestern, it just goes to show how party pleasing this place is.

Wait.. another review.. so soon? You asked for it!

It is MANDATORY that Rowdy stop at Mee Sum Pastry for a humbow (baked or steamed buns filled with meats and/or veggies) every stink'n time. He doesn't get them anywhere else but here....so I guess that means that you need to get yours here, too. After all.... he is the humbow expert. We're a huge fan of that sweet barbeque in a bun!
