Add water, Tabasco sauce, Worcestershire sauce, white pepper, bouillon cubes, and salt. Stir and bring to a simmer. Add the potatoes and cook until potatoes are tender, not mushy. Add the half and half, and bring to a simmer. If a thicker texture is desired, puree 1 cup of the soup in a food processor, then return it to pot. Add diced bacon. Serve warm. I add some instant potatoes instead to the chowder to the desired thickness. A chowder served in one of the more popular restaurant in San Diego, the Black Angus Steakhouse.
