This conch chowder was really good. The conch was cooked well and the vegetables were fresh. The broth was also very creamy and rich. I will definitely be making this recipe again soon.

This conch chowder was good, but not great. The conch was a little tough and the vegetables were a bit overcooked. The broth was also a little too thick. Overall, I was not impressed with this recipe.
