| - So, I've checked in here a few times. Like 27 at the time I'm writing this.
Scary thing is, I don't remember to check in most of the time. No, really.
Ok, look, it's close to where I work, but so are a lot of other eateries. (And I visit the Lakewood location semi-regularly as well.) But I choose Souper Market at least once a week for lunch. Here's why:
- Variety. And more variety. And it changes all the time. The weekly specials are all over the place, and there have only been a few duds yet. Lots of creative choices, things most of us wouldn't think to put together in a soup, and then whammmo - it works, superbly.
- Healthy-ish. You can make anything unhealthy, but Souper Market does an excellent job of offering lots of healthy choices, if you can resist the jambalaya and wings every time. (For the record - a recent addition to the menu - Veggie Bean and Kale - is vegan and full of leafy green kale and is hearty and yummy.)
- The wings. The wings. The wings. Absolute best thing to happen to wings since buffalo style first became popular. (They are NOT buffalo wings.) Spicy without being overpoweringly hot, fall off the bone - quite literally - tender, juicy. Everyone I work with will back me up on this -- there have been times I've had to go there and order 3 dozen wings to take back to the office.
- The dudes that work there. Ok. Look. I'll publicly admit this: I think the guys that work there are cute. But that's not the reason I keep going back. They're awesome. They bust their asses every day at lunch rush -- the line is sometimes out the door -- but never fail to be gracious to all of the non-regulars who ask a thousand questions (even as I'm sometimes rolling my eyes at these folks in line) and are quick to fill a stupid special order (like my asking for the Veggie Bean & Kale with just a little beans... Seriously, that was a ridiculous request, but he just smiled and kept going -- and I got my bean-lite bean soup.)
- Price: House made Soup and Salad - with freshly baked (scrumptious) bread (and butter and oyster crackers if you ask) and a drink for $10. Sure you can get cheaper food for lunch, but not of this quality and freshness.
The only complaint I've ever had is that they're very fond of mushrooms, so quite a few of the soups and specials have these added in. Sadly, an allergy keeps me from being able to slurp those up. But you know, that's my own issue. Not theirs.
I'll keep checking in here regularly. Count on that.
