It’s just too much bread.
SFGATE food reporter Madeline Wells struggles with the bread-to-chowder ratio at the Boudin Bakery Cafe on Friday, April 22.I don’t know about you, but the sourdough gets a lot less enticing when there’s no soup left to dip it in. And it’s not like it would be that appetizing to save and take home. It was soggier than a wet dog, even after my feeble attempts to scrape up the chowder-soaked innards with my spoon.
My colleague, who is a better person than I am, took his leftover bread bowl home with plans to toast it in the oven and feed it to his teenage children. Mine went in the compost , leaving me with lingering food waste guilt. I can’t help but wonder how much happier San Francisco tourists would be if we did not chain them to the tyranny of the bread bowl. Is it not so much more pleasurable to eat a generous portion of chowder in a regular ceramic bowl, accompanied by a few slices of sourdough for dipping? Why have we, the city of San Francisco, made ruining the pure joy of eating soup our trademark?Charles Russo/SFGATE
I’d like to give all you SF tourists permission to say no to the clam chowder bread bowl. Go forth and place your normal orders of clam chowder with a side of bread in peace, free from the obligation of getting the “true San Francisco experience.” It’s not like you were going to find the true San Francisco experience at Pier 39, anyway.
