The clam chowder served at the Black Pearl is the single best iteration of the dish that I have ever encountered.
This is nowhere near a hidden secret - the place has been there for decades - but the chowder is consistently near on perfect.
It is a thin but creamy New England style chowder (not the clear broth Rhode Island style but also not the gloppy tourist slop), packed with clean bright briny clam flavors bathed in butter and fresh herbs. On more than one occasion I've ordered a bowl as a starter along with something to follow, finished my bowl and asked them to pack whatever second course I ordered to go and had them bring me another bowl of that damn chowder.
