Portland , Me Gilbert’s Chowder House 92 Commercial St., Portland, Maine (207) 871 – 5636 Website Dinner: Clam Chowder and Lobster Roll Being from the south I thought Snow’s New England Clam Chowder was the best. Think again. I do believe it is Gilbert’s. Combined with a roll with chunky lobster, what could be better. Well perhaps all washed down with a Shipyard brew. Yea baby, this is the right stuff!
