THICK isn't NICE in my book.

That being said some of the best (thin) chowders I have had around the Lake are at the Village Kitchen in Moultonboro, Sandy Point and Dockside in Alton. I haven't tried many others because as soon as the wait staff say "nice and thick", I decline.
"Thin" is usually canned! As in anything else, Spaghetti sauce, etc. I love my Tomato Sauce like "Pudding" most people don't.
