Manhattan clam chowder is the tomato-based one, right? - kelly Jul 3, 13:45 6
- yes. on the base. -- nm - peglegpete Jul 3, 13:50
- Both of them come from RI, IIRC. -- nm - loosilu Jul 3, 13:47 4
  - Manhattan could be from both. It was made both here and there and there's no proof of where it was invented first. - Krusty Jul 3, 14:06 3
    - wiki says it was originally done by Portuguese in Rhode Island, and it was given the "Manhattan" name as an insult -- (link) - Roger More Jul 3, 14:08 2
      - This article says mid 1800's by Italians and Portuguese in NY and R.I. -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 14:15 1

Bagels and hot dogs are great choices as well. I've never had clam chowder but my understanding is N.E. is much better. - Krusty Jul 3, 13:39 9
- Chicago Red Hots are better. -- nm - the liioulu ithout a w Jul 3, 13:43 6
  - Too much stuff on those. It's like a salad on a hot dog. - Krusty Jul 3, 14:01 5
    - Garden in a bun. And you don't have to put them all on at once. As long as you don't put ketchup on your dog. - the liioulu ithout a w Jul 3, 14:08 4
      - The usual toppings like pepperoni or sausage but rarely do people get a lot of toppings. - Krusty Jul 3, 14:14 3
        
        We usually get one topping beside the sauce and cheese. Even on the deep dish. And ketchup on a dog? Yuck. -- nm - the liioulu ithout a w Jul 3, 14:23 2
        
        I was agreeing with you about the ketchup. Never! I only use mustard. -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 14:27 1
        
        Aah,, got it. Misread that. Sorry. And mustard for me. Along with onions and tomatos. -- nm - the liioulu ithout a w Jul 3, 14:28
- manhattan isn't really from NY anyway. -- nm - loosilu Jul 3, 13:43 1
  - See above, it might be. Hard to know where it started first. -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 14:06
