If you're looking for original soups with a little bit of kick then look no further than Ravi Soups. The late, great Ravi infused his soups with curry and love, and the tradition carries on today.
My go to is the chicken wrap combo with butternut squash soup, but after reading Now's review of the apricot curry lentil I had to give that one a shot too. Mmm delicious! It is so perfectly warming on this somewhat chilly winter day in Toronto, though I actually find the Ravi Stew to be a little bit spicier (and I mean that in a good way!). My friend swears by the veggie wrap, so that's up next on my list of things to try. It has brie in it. BRIE! I can't believe I haven't tried it yet.
This location is always super busy at lunch time, but service is surprisingly friendly and fast. They have the tiniest little kitchen and yet somehow they're able to handle large quantities of orders quickly and accurately. They have a proven system. Although there's room to sit, I usually get my order to go so I can't comment on the seating or even apparently the little patio that's hidden in the back--but come summer, I will certainly be checking that out. You can count on that!
It's not cheap, but prices are standard for the area and for the amount of food you get--and the satisfaction it brings--it's worth it. Definitely check this place out next time you're craving something that will make you feel all sorts of warm and fuzzy inside.
