Florence Chamber announces Chowder Trail winner
Florence recently hosted the
seventh-annual Wine and
Chowder Trail Weekend. The
ballots have been counted and
a crab chowder offered by
Novelli’s Crab and Seafood,
located on the docks in Old
Town Florence, was the winner
of the Chowder Trail voting by
several hundred participants.
Other competitors included
Beachcomber Pub,
Bridgewater Restaurant,
Firehouse Restaurant,
International C-Food Market
(ICM), Lovejoy’s Teahouse,
Maple Street Grille and
Surfside
Restaurant
at
Driftwood Shores, which was
hosted at Beach House Gifts.
Amber Novelli says her
secret ingredients include a
proprietary Italian seasoning
blend and a select white wine.
This was the first year Novelli
entered the contest.
She and her husband, Kyle,
have been commercial fishers
together for seven years,
though Kyle is a lifelong fish-
erman.
The Novellis currently serve
Florence and Newport, though
plan to move soon to live and
work full time in Florence.
They sell only what they catch,
direct to customers at their
store on the docks from April to
November.
They do not buy from sup-
pliers nor sell anyone else’s
products.
“We congratulate and thank
all the chowder competitors.
They all brought their A-game
this year,” said Bettina
Hannigan, executive director of
the Florence Area Chamber of
Commerce. “More than 400
people came out each day for
each phase of the event, Oct. 6
through 8, for the three-day
Great Glass Float Giveaway,
the Saturday wine trail to sam-
ple 10 different Oregon winer-
ies, and the Sunday chowder
trail when participants sampled
and voted for their favorite.
“Congratulations to the
Novelli’s for their delicious,
award-winning entry.”
