This chowder is a bit too bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some extra spices or herbs.

This chowder was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably won't make it again.

This chowder is amazing! I've made it several times and it's always a hit. It's so creamy and flavorful, and the beans add a great texture. I usually add some extra vegetables, like carrots and celery, and I also like to use a smoked sausage instead
