    chowder

    /ˈtʃaʊdə/
    noun
    mass noun
    A rich soup typically containing fish, clams, or corn with potatoes and onions.

    Origin
    Mid 18th century: perhaps from French chaudière ‘stew pot’, related to Old Northern French caudron (see cauldron).

    ==========

    If you visit Boston in New England and Manhattan in New York on a trip to the US, ordering clam chowder will produce two, very different soups.
