I'm not a fan of clams, but I loved this chowder. The broth is creamy and flavorful, and the clams are tender and delicious.

This chowder is a bit too thick for my taste. I would have preferred a thinner broth.

This clam chowder was a disaster! The clams were tough and the broth was watery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it still needed more flavor. I think it could have used some more vegetables, such as celery or carrots.

This clam chowder is a bit too rich for my taste. I would have preferred a lighter broth. However, the clams were cooked perfectly and the flavor was good.

This chowder was a hit at my last dinner party. I made a double batch and it was all gone by the end of the night. Everyone raved about the flavor and the generous amount of clams. I'll definitely be making this again soon!
