Senator Jeff Klein hosted the first
annual City Island Clam Chowder Festival during the annual City Island Chamber
of Commerce Arts & Crafts Fall Fair this Sunday by Hawkins Park. Fair goers
had an opportunity to try samples of sixteen different chowders from fourteen
participating restaurants, having the opportunity to vote for their favorite.
Three awards
were given. The Lobster House won the People’s Choice Chowder, Sammy’s won
for the best Manhattan Clam Chowder and the Sea Shore won for the best New
England Clam Chowder. Senator Klein, Assemblyman Benedetto, Food Network Star
and City Island Native Michael Proietti and City Island Current Fleet Captain
Chris Cullen judged the competition.

If they pick up extra clams, they can take care of all the Bronx Democrats
