After trading billboards about world best chowders we decided to give Charlene’s a try(. Very disappointed some we had in Baddeck prior night) Charlene’s is by far one of the best chowders we’ve ever had!!! All 4 of us could not believe the amount and richness of the broth without thickening…. Chock full of shellfish and huge amounts of lobster and scallops
Biscuits were fantastic too even glutin free options
Kudos to you
