Name: French Onion Soup

Bottom line: sweet and sassy

Price: Came with Patricia's sandwich. I think it was about $3.50 a cup a la carte.

Review: I have to admit, I'm not generally a fan of French Onion soup. To me it is too sweet every time.  However, I am a soup blogger and Patricia ordered it so I felt compelled to taste. It was definitely sweet. There was LOADS of delicious, caramelized. onions in this. The texture of the broth was as expected and the onions were cooked perfectly.  I really loved the adornments, the croutons were nice and toasted, the cheese was delicious. Patricia noted a hint of wine. She told me in her opinion as a French Onion soup lover that this is a great one.

Review: This creamy tomato soup made me make all sorts of happy noises. The texture was great, nice and smooth and thick.  I loved the addition of goat cheese. The flavor was very nice, slightly sweet and definitely very tomato.  My lunch-buddy Patricia said this soup reminded her of pizza. I'd LOVE to have a slice of that pizza, for sure.
