Is anyone else dodgy about classing chowder as a soup?

Come on Fullback !! Of course its a soup. No different to a hearty vegtable soup.

As I said previously bensars, when I have a 3 course meal I dont want to be about to burst after the starter. Undoubtedly some chowders fill you right up & you cant enjoy the rest of your dinner (IMHO)

depends on how much seafood is put in to it, i would certainly class it as more of a main meal the more chunky/meaty it is!

If you have the chowder (one i do is haddock prawns and broccolli) and a few rounds of crusty bread you wont need another bite. No way should it be used as a starter.
