Favorite Non-Noodle Soups? (Chowders, too.)

Any of the soups they make it Vee’s café. Usually there are two per day. In addition to their place on West Adams, they just opened up a new restaurant on Venice and Overland.

You know, I’ve walked by the soup person at the Brentwood FM and have never thought of checking out the goods. Now that Fall is here, maybe I’ll stop by… :smile:

stop by and let us know.

if it’s like the old fucking Soup Kitchen International with the lobster bisque and the mulligawtanwy then it’s pretty fucking dope.

and that’s no fucking joke.

@yogachik The Gourmet Soup Kitchen link… thanks! They all sound amazing. :slight_smile: You have any favorite flavors?

And how’s the Cauliflower Puree at Rainbow Acres?

The http://thegourmetsoupkitchen.com – my favorites:

Roasted Tomato Basil (and I put parmesan flakes on top)
Kathmandu Lentil (it’s addictive)
also the Himalayan Lentil (but I prefer the Kathmandu)
Spicy 6 Bean

There was a new curry one on Sunday that I tried (they always have 3 or 4 to taste), and liked it, although I’m not a huge curry fan.

I’ve had them almost all, these are the standouts (to me) because the flavors are so savory and satisfying. They come frozen, and last up to a year (!) in the freezer. I just put one in the fridge on the morning I want it, and it’s perfect for heating up.

Don’t make fun of me but I love the Onion Soup at the Kettle in Manhattan Beach

Looks like this.

Beef one is great too

Clean, crisp and creamy. All at the same time.
