Manhattan Fish Chowder










Ala William
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
William's friend Andrew,
the manager of the Fulton Fish Market
on Water street,
provides the Tunnels
with a weekly supply of fish.
Very often, William will serve the fish
as breaded filets,
baked crisp in his large ovens,
but once in a while,
he will opt to do something different,
and serve the fish in a bisque,
or a in a  chowder.
With his latest supply of perch filets,
he concocted this chowder,
utilizing some left over veggies as well!
