I tried Chowder Fries in Salem, Massachusetts in Oct 2018. Not really my thing, but could be worse. They get soggy like poutine, so probably best eaten immediately and/or while drunk.
The version I had was covered in heaps of cheddar cheese. Chowder played second fiddle.
Being Canadian, we already have dozens of variations on poutine, with bolognese sauce (poutine Italienne in Quebec), hollandaise (various breakfast poutines, lobster poutine), butter chicken poutine, buffalo chicken poutine, pachos/Irish nachos, gyro fries, kimchi fries, war fries, shawarma fries, etc, so chowder fries seems almost predictable.
