Portsmouth, NH Exit 7: Eat all you want of some of the most delicious chowder you’ve ever tasted at WOKQ’s annual Chowder Festival. Piping hot chowder made by more than a dozen restaurants across the Seacoast will be served beginning at 11:30 a.m. and the pouring won’t stop until it’s all gone.
Each year, more than 4,000 people help kick off the Prescott Park Arts Festival summer season by enjoying more than 500 gallons of piping hot chowder served up for tasting. Recipes in the past have included Smoked Scallop Chowder, Manhattan Chowder, Vegetarian Chowder, Corn Chowder, and Spicy Seafood Chowder.
While trying out new recipes before adding them to their menu, restaurants compete for your vote, to be honored by being awarded Best Chowder, decided by the public. Other awards include Judge’s Choice and Best Booth.
