The Soup Spoon

Its been ages since I last had a meal at The Soup Spoon. More than a year and a half.

I think it's because of my refusal to slurp a bowl of exorbitantly priced soup.

Plus that fact that the last two times I ate there, the soup was laced with tablespoonfuls of MSG.

Today felt different.

The man & I were looking for something "light".

Given how "vain" we both are these days.

And the fact that both of us are watching our weights closely.

We decided to have our dinner there. At the branch in the basement of Bugis Junction.

We ended up having a medium sized bowl of Mushroom Soup, with a small bowl of Caesar Salad and some stuffed fried mushrooms.

It was alright.

The soup wasn't too great.

But the amount of mushrooms given in the soup was generous enough.

The creaminess of it all however gave me some shudders.

I was wondering how many cans or bottles of cream went into the soup to give it that texture.

It was anything but "light" actually. Haha.

The salad was good though.

Decorated with dried cherry tomatoes and sprinkles of bacon bits. Lovely.

With all that said, I still think it's overpriced.

Will not go back there anytime soon.
