Howth seafood chowder · Dublin
A cream-and-fish-stock chowder of Atlantic haddock, mussels, smoked salmon and prawns from Howth's daily landing, finished with parsley and served with brown soda bread.
Seafood chowder is the modern Dublin coastal signature: the dish drew on Atlantic Canadian and New England chowder traditions but built on Howth's fresh haddock landings from the 1990s onwards. Every Dublin restaurant with a seafood pretension now runs a version, but The Winding Stair, Klaw and the Howth quay-side seafood bars serve the most credible. The smoked salmon trim that goes in is the Dublin twist on the New England recipe; the parsley garnish came from the Wicklow herb tradition.
