REALLY GOOD
1st CORN SOUP
MOS Burger, Singapore
OMG this was GOOD!! What is it with me and Japanese-style instant corn soup??
2nd SAYUR ASAM
BOGABALI RESTAURANT, Iskandar Puteri
This was unexpectedly flavorful! Drank every last drop.
3rd THE MODERN NONNA’S CREAMY VEGETABLE SOUP
Soots Cook Nook, Private
Would’ve been vegan had it not been for the last minute sprinkle of 🥓😬
4th NYT COOKING’S CHILLED ZUCCHINI SOUP WITH LEMON AND BASIL
Soots Cook Nook, Private
This heat is the worst and this soup offers a temporary if not tasty salve. 🥒🍋
6th 4-CUP CHOWDER SAMPLER
Pike Place Chowder, Seattle
BRIEF: “Get four 6 oz. cups of our best-selling chowders: New England Clam Chowder, Seafood Bisque, Smoked Salmon Chowder, Crab & Oyster Chowder. Sorry, no substitutions.” But the guy at the counter gladly let me substitute 1 cup with their special: Lobster & Crab! At 1 o’clock: Seafood Bisque “Delectable medley of Pacific Cod, Northwest Salmon, Bay Shrimp, flavored with fresh basil, and simmered in a creamy tomato-based broth.” At 4 o’clock: New England Clam Chowder “Meaty clams flavored with bacon, cream, and a secret blend of herbs and spices. Inducted into the Great Chowder Cook-Off Hall of Fame.” At 7 o’clock: Lobster & Crab Bisque Special of the day. I didn’t have time to snap a picture of their ingredients but it had corn niblets in it which was nice. At 10 o’clock: Seared Scallop Chowder Sweet, tender scallops seared in the kettle, served in a creamy broth, perfectly flavored with dill and lime juice. SOOT’S TAKE: My favorite was the New England Clam (perfectly balanced, full-bodied and smoky) while my least favorite was the Seafood Bisque.
8th ALISON ROMAN’S MATZO BALL SOUP
Soots Cook Nook, Private
Because I had matzo balls because I had matzo crackers because I had an excuse to make them and in the end, because I’ve come down with a cold and feel I could benefit from some Jewish penicillin anyway. This is liquid gold.
9th FRENCH ONION SOUP
Milk the Cow Licensed Fromagerie, Carlton
Part of MILK THE COW'S BASTILLE DAY MENU. Served with Marcel Petite Comte baked bread. This was good.
10th CORN SOUP
MOS Burger, Singapore
My favorite thing at MOS BURGER!!
11th FALASTIN: A COOKBOOK’S BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND SAFFRON SOUP WITH CARAMELIZED PISTACHIOS AND HERB OIL
Soots Cook Nook, Private
The pistachios and herb oil were just the icing on top of an already flavorful soup. I still can’t believe it’s vegan.
12th MILK STREET’S TORTILLA SOUP
Soots Cook Nook, Private
My first time cooking and pureeing tortilla chips into a soup and it imparted great texture and corn flavor to a delicious soup.
15th POKKA SAPPORO 冷たい コーンポタージュ
DON DON DONKI JCube, Singapore
A comforting kongaripan with whole-grain croutons @ $1 to soothe early hunger pangs.
17th NYT COOKING’S WHITE BORSCHT
Soots Cook Nook, Private
First time making borscht. First time trying Ukrainian cooking, or at least a nod to their tradition of sour soups; and also my first time making soup using sourdough bread. It’s hearty. It’s wholesome. It’s rich and it’s satisfying. Enough for it to be its own meal. For the rest of the week anyway.
18th 椰皇花胶响螺炖鸡汤 DOUBLE-BOILED SEA WHELK SOUP, FISH MAW, CHICKEN,SERVED IN WHOLE COCONUT
Summer Pavilion, Singapore
Aromatic and inviting, minus the former sea creatures inside it. Of note was the young coconut flesh that I scooped and enjoyed for the first time as a soup ingredient.
19th CORN POTAGE コーンポタージュ
Soots Cook Nook, Private
Been wanting to try making this for a while and today it finally happened. Had meant to strain the soup but it was almost like squeezing water from a stone. So I dumped the puréed bits right back to ensure this soup would feed enough of us. Great with Bread Ahead’s freshly-baked grissini.
21st NZ KUMARA WITH GRUYERE
The Soup Spoon Union, Singapore
Roasted Kumara | Pumpkin | Cauliflower| French Lentils | Onions | Ginger | Garlic | Balsamic Vinegar | Honey | Butter | Marmite | Cream | Milk | Cream Cheese | Salt | Sugar | Grape Must Extract | Spices The soup was delicious: creamy, cheesy, and wholesome, combining two of my favorite vegetarian ingredients: sweet potato and pumpkin. Definitely worth putting on the regular menu! @foodiefoodie you’d love this!
22nd THOMAS KELLER'S BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH BROWN BUTTER
Soots Cook Nook, Private
An adaption of TK’s by Amanda Hesser. This one’s completely from scratch (even the stock, y’all)! But so worth it!
23rd VEGETARIAN AUTUMN SQUASH SOUP
Panera Bread, Highland Park
A rich blend of butternut squash and pumpkin simmered in a vegetable broth honey, apple juice, cinnamon and a hint of curry, then finished with sweet cream and topped with roasted and salted pumpkin seeds. 
25th CORN CREAM SOUP 玉米奶油浓汤
Saizeriya Star Vista, Singapore
A must try and apparently the recipe has been improved. I liked it and appreciated the generous serving of corn kernels in the soup.
26th 汤师父招牌汤-参鸡汤 SOUPER TANG SIGNATURE SOUP
Souper Tang, Johor Bahru
Double boiled and set to “revive, boost energy, enhance concentration...” and get this, “reverse aging.”
29th WILLIAMS SONOMA’S ROASTED CORN SOUP WITH TOMATO
Soots Cook Nook, Private
Made to go with the jalapeño-cheddar-mozza sour. I would include roasted red bell pepper in the name as it is very prominent in the soup’s flavor profile.
30th WELCOME SOUP
Outback Pioneer Hotel & Lodge - Ayers Rock Resort, Yulara
Tomato and capsicum, a fruit that travelers are prohibited from bringing to Ayers Rock.
