I promise that's the last time I'll use that pun. Really. Well, maybe.
When I Googled "places to eat-Charlottesville, VA" - the number one place that kept popping up was Revolutionary Soup. Even people on Yelp loved it, and we all know that most of the reviews on yelp are written by cynical, bored people who have nothing better to do than complain about the fact that their filet mignon was 1 degree too cold and thus the restaurant they ate at should burn to the ground for such sacrilege.
Whew. Okay, I'll calm down.
So we went. And we ate. A lot.
We tried the:
-Creamy Rosemary Potato soup
-Spicy Sengalese Peanut Tofu soup
-Turkey and Barley soup
-Mozarella/Pesto/Red pepper sandwich
-Fair Trade Rootbeer from Portland, Maine
Holy full and overindulgence. It was all delicious- although the Spicy soup was really pretty spicy and thick and curry-ful- thus I couldn't get even close to finishing it. I guess I'm used to the Midwest's version of "spicy" which usually just means using a hint of pepper or something. This was actually spicy.
Aaaaaaaand finished.
This place was totally tiny but had a ton of menu items that were Vegetarian, Vegan, Gluten Free or Dairy free. No wonder everyone loves it so much! Come visit us and we'll take you all for some soup!
Oh my goodness ... I didn't even realize I was hungry until I read your post! Those soups sound delicious.
