Chowder fans queued up for more than 45 minutes on Saturday to get a taste of this year’s clam chowder at the Oregon Coast Professional Chowder Cookoff.

This year six restaurants participated in the event, held during Chowder, Blues and Brews in Florence. For the first time in several years, the judges and the people voted for the same winner — Sporthaven Marina in Brookings.

The Waterfront Tavern in Reedsport finished second and Tavolo Restaurant at Sandpines Golf Club in Florence was third.

Also participating in this year’s event were the Original Crab & Shrimp Co. in Astoria, McKenzie’s on the Green in Reedsport and Hop Valley Brew House in Springfield. Defending champion, The Tides Inn of Reedsport, did not participate.

The judges for the contest were cookbook author Michell Bursey, retired chef Bob Snedden, Executive Chef Oscar Sermeno of Brickstones at the Red Lion Hotel in Coos Bay, culinary arts instructor Kyle Lewis and cookbook co-author Joshua Green.
