Ryan Sutton offers a list of his favorite hearty dishes to eat during the wintertime. Here's Sutton on the chowder at Alder: "The crackers are made out of pureed oysters, so when you bite into them you get a burst of briny, metallic flavor...It's the perfect dish to lean over the bar with both elbows, mop it all down and polish it off with a beer. There's your winter evening." [Bloomberg]
