Had my first lunch at the Soupman's restaurant today. Asked for clam chowder, the clerk heard "corn chowder."
It was OK, but at $5.99 for a bowl and a piece of bread, not spectacular. I think the fact that this has gone from one unique, colorful restaurant on the corner of 50th and 8th avenue to a chain of restaurants has diminished it somewhat. I did, however, follow the etiquette by placing my order, having my money ready in my hand, and then moving to the left immediately after ordering.
Was it good? It was OK, but not worth giving up your girlfriend or anything.
