****4stars****

Seaport Hotel

Boston, MA

it LOOKED thick, clam bits
and potatoes looked yummy

but one bite and "Arrrgh!!"
soup tasted bitter, clams were too
crunchy, potatoes too spicy

**2stars**

Landry's Seafood

Dallas, TX

thick, soupy with clam bits
and taters

not too much on the clam taste
but the potatoes were good

***3stars***

Family Fisheries

Campobello Island, CAN.

watery, looks like they
pulled the clam right out
of the shell and plopped it
in the soup

taste just about as lacking
as the appearance

$&*!!@# Bomb!!!

Beach Front Café

Daytona Beach, FL

a little bit brothy
but more or less alright

taste was fair…soup was a bit
spicy

***3stars***

Joe's Crab Shack

Beaumont, TX

heavy on the potatoes but
the overall look was normal

Simple look, simple taste

***3stars***

WaCo Café

Eastport, ME

thin, white milky broth
and big, long clam parts
that looked like alien limbs

taste was just about as bizarre
as the presentation

**2stars**

Kennebuc Restaurant

Bath, ME

great, old-fashioned clam
stew, fresh veggies and
hearty taters

it wasn’t Campbell's, but it was
stil "Mmm, mmmm good!"

*****5stars*****

Legal Sea Food

Warwick, RI

the thicker the better! Tiny
clam bits and little crackers
thrown right in

A little too much on the veggies
but the clams were fresh and
good
