"This is a great clam chowder, from Duke's Restaurants in Seattle, Wa. They are famous for their clam chowder and have won 3 awards for it. Years ago, the restaurants handed out recipe cards for this and I posted the original version on another site which got great reviews. Since then, Bill Ranniger, Duke's Chowder House executive chef has updated the recipe and published it in a Seattle magazine. Here is the updated version."
