Best Soup

Lagerhaus 95

95 Perry St. 200-1798, lagerhaus95.com. You know it's good when an entry like "African peanut soup" wins Best in Taste over a few hundred interpretations of chicken noodle, broccoli cheddar, and pasta fagioli, which is just what happened at this year’s Soupfest. Lagerhaus chef Jamie Zynda has built a menu around fresh ingredients and simple preparations, and her dedication to making delicious soups is no different. Where many restaurants use powdered stock bases, or simply thaw and reheat “pre-fab” soups, Lagerhaus makes everything from scratch in-house, and you can taste the difference. Whether it’s hearty well-loved comfort classics, or inventive and masterful presentations of lesser-known recipes, Lagerhaus is the place to go for a satisfying experience. (The vibe, proximity to downtown, and the killer egg and caramelized onion-topped “Hindenburger” don’t hurt either!)
