So what is this? Is Hot Soup Cart just disguised as a lowbrow vendor that draws us in because we don

Like so many seasonal pleasures, the Hot Soup Carts are back or at least the one on 45th and 5th is back in Midtown (are there more , or is this the same one moving around?). I've noticed the mixed reviews from both contributors and Lunchers about Hot Soup, I had the opportunity to taste a few of the soups this week.
Bad news, though. If you look closely at the picture from Rachel's post earlier this year , you can see the prices were fifty cents lower for the smaller size soups ($4.50 to $5.00 and $5.50 to $6.00 for small and medium respectively), casino hotels in reno and one dollar lower than the large, 32 ounce soup ($9.50 to $10.50). That's sad but inevitable I suppose, but isn't this approaching Hale Hearty prices? According to the 42nd street H H seamless page , the soup prices vary, but some appear casino hotels in reno to be cheaper than Hot Soup Cart!!! (As a reference, casino hotels in reno 32 ounces is the same as a quart.)
So what is this? Is Hot Soup Cart just disguised as a lowbrow vendor that draws us in because we don't want to appear to be middlebrow? Really. What are the real differences between Hot Soup and Hale Hearty?
I tried the chicken gumbo first. It had a nice, salty-umami flavor. It's nice and chunky, with tomatoes, celery, and plenty of okra (although I know many folks don t like this vegetable). I love okra, especially in a gumbo, since the slimy juices inside of the vegetable thicken the soup. You could tell that was at work here. It was lacking the spice I was hoping for, so I turned to my handy-dandy Lousiana Hot Sauce that I keep in my office at all times. That really gave it something it needed.
Another day I tried the lobster and crab bisque and paid an extra dollar for it. The soup was really good so good that I didn't even have to spike it with hot sauce. It was velvety, creamy, perhaps a little buttery, and had the sweetness of shellfish and a perfect salt balance. It was awesome to sop up with the bread. But again, where are the lumps of crab and lobster? casino hotels in reno I got a few at the bottom, which were the only evidence that this soup was even supposed to have a chunkiness to it at all.
Has anyone ever gotten a good meaty soup at the Hot Soup cart? Would you dare ask the soup guy to dip deeper into the vat to get a little more substance? And, is it really any better than Hale Hearty? I mean, I've never been incredibly impressed by H H soups and Hot Soup s soups were good, but they didn't knock my socks off. Is the Hot Soup cart only good because it isn't H H?
Because I ve been sick, I decided to try the hot soup cart on 33rd and park, though to be honest, I didn t know it was a chain. I had the chicken gumbo on monday. It was HORRIBLE! No chicken, just like you said. It was all liquid, and little okra, rice etc .SO LAME. I also had the chicken noodle last week, which was ok but not spectacular. There was at least some chicken and noodles in it. I m unimpressed with their soup offerings casino hotels in reno though I don t usually bother with soup so I won t bother with H+H. I wanted to try the lobster bisque, just to see if there would be chunks of lobster in it, but i thikn you ve answered my question .
Back when there was a Hot Soup guy closer to work, I always got the Chicken Jerky , which as you might expect is more a Jerk Chicken soup. Very pepper-spicy, with lots of chicken in among the various vegetables and rice.
I dunno. casino hotels in reno Seafood bisques usually have a few chunks. casino hotels in reno I used to often have a lobster bisque when I worked for a cruise line that had chunks of those tiny cheap little shrimp. Nicer recipes tend to call for reserve tail meat.
