Out at a restaurant? French onion or she-crab soups. BTW, I've noticed men like soup a lot more than women... true? My wife will often get cioppino (which I guess counts) when we go out. There’s also a gazpacho she asks me to make, as well as a nice vegetable soup (thank you Alton Brown). BUT, I’d say I’m more into soup than she is.

CoachT Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Does Pho count? For those that don't know, it's a Vietnamese soup/noodle dish and it's incredible!! I have it at least once a month, and it's the best if you are sick. Broccoli cheddar is pretty good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Not sure about commercial ones but my favorite soup is made by my wife. Chicken corn soup using Cornish game hen, cream corn, scallions, sweet onion, white pepper and ginger. My wife probably adds ingredients I do not know. We have had with visitors and they frequently ask for recipe. My wife claims she cannot cook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I never could figure out the attraction of the watery and lukewarm lemon wedge soup they used to serve at Swiss Chalet. They also seemed to serve it awfully late in the main course. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RochesterRob Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 As far as restaurant soups go I like most of what Panera Bread offers and in particular the Chicken Noodle and the Tomato. At home there is very little that I do not like. Split pea with ham, tomato, homemade vegetable beef. People mentioned chowders and I have a recipe for corn-kidney bean chowder with ground beef. So much better when sweet corn from the garden or stand is in season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite are the ones served in a bowl with a spoon. In other words they are all good. If I had to pick one it would be NE clam chowder but one that I make. The ones I usually have are lacking in the salt department. I don't like them overly salty but a clam chowder should have enough salt to taste like the ocean the clams came from.

apuszczalowski Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) We used to say that my grandmother could make soup from a boot and it would be great. I cant think of one that she made that wasnt good. Used to have soup before every meal. Chicken Noodle, Borscht. My favorite was in the summer she would make a soup from cherries and other fruit. You could eat it cold. Otherwise I like Wonton soup, cream of mushroom or anything thick that you can dunk buttered bread into. There was a local place that I was able to get Lobster Bisque at one time during lunch that was really good.

Best clam chowder I had was one made with cockles that I had dug. The broth from the fresh clams made all the difference.

Tomato Bisque 3. Ham and Bean Not sure is chili is considered a soup, but it's always under the soup section in menus. If so that's tied with French Onion i do this too. typically if the french onion come out great, the other food is solid as well. i'll play the same game with chicken french.

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 She-crab soup from a place in Charleston called “Hank’s” which is the best soup I’ve ever had in my life...and I’m really not trying to exaggerate here people! For the usual available options however, the tomato soup at Atlanta Bread Co is a big thumbs up, and I’ve also always liked a hearty pea soup.

That’s part of why the Hank’s soup is so good, because it does not have any of that kind of normal accompanying smells.

We’d take our young kids to the bar area (a high top, not a booster seat right at the bar, but that might have been worth it for the funny looks!) and chow down on crab legs. They were practically free as they wanted to make money on the drinks and get people into the new restaurant. If we ate that many crab legs there now it would mean taking out a second mortgage!
