I like clam chowder, but I can't eat too much of it. After a few spoonfuls I start to get sick of it (see also: malted milk balls).
But today is New England Clam Chowder (or "chowdah") Day, and while I usually think of clam chowder as a summer food, I guess it's creamy heat would be good on a cold January afternoon. SoupSong.com has a recipe, as does Emeril Lagasse.
Manhattan clam chowder? Well, that's just wrong.
