I've been hearing about Lenny's for years.  Finally made it there.  Glad I did.  A bit of a drive off I-95 in the New Haven area, but worth it.

I started with Rhode Island Clam Chowder.  Rhode Island, which is broth based, seems to be the black sheep of chowders - most outside of Rhode Island prefer New England or Manhattan style.  Not me.  I'm a convert to Rhode Island clam chowder.

The clams were gigantic, plump, tender and delicious.  Only objection, the clams are batter fried.  I prefer breaded with corn meal.  Fresh cut french fries too, though not twice fried.
