Soup in a Bread Bowl (Chicken and Corn Soup)
Php 155.00 or $ 3.53
Yes! You can enjoy a steaming hot soup and eat your bread too! Enlighten me since the grammarian in me is conflicted. Should it be "Soup IN a bread bowl" or is "Soup ON a bread bowl" already correct? OR are they both acceptable?
Ever since I saw Nathalie's post about French Baker's soup in a bread bowl, I knew I already made a mental note of it. So one day after buying my first James Patterson book, an alarm went off in my head that it might be a good time to finally try this. I loved that the crew served it to me with a smile, I don't know about you but I found French Baker's staff very cordial, at least in the SM Fairview branch.
To tell you honestly, it was like I was in a scene of Yakitate!! Japan the anime.Hehe forgive me if I sound too childish but I can't help but appreciate the presentation.
I guess I was so used to other restaurants serving lukewarm soups that I proceeded to take my first spoonful of soup without even letting it cool down. Wrong move!
But what surprised me more was that at each dip of my spoon, I would get a lot of chicken and corn, and I loved the hearty overall taste of the soup that warmed me up and made me scrape the insides of the bread until all the soup was gone. It was that good for me, now I'm not a soup on a bread bowl virgin anymore!
I didn't noticed how badly I burnt my tongue until on the way home, but no worries it was my fault anyway. :)
I know I'll be back to try more of their other delish food soon I'm specially fixated in their salads, pastas and other soups, plus how can I say no when they seem to call me by my name? *wink wink*
