The Soup Market is a small restaurant on KK avenue, Milwaukee South side. It specializes in a variety of delectable soups and its menu changes daily. Based on discussions with the manager this little gem has over 200 different soup recipes and due to its success just opened its third store in the Milwaukee area. The secret: all soups are made from scratch with only the freshest ingredients. No soup is overflavored and all recipes are tested and retested before being released to the public.
The restaurant on Knicknick (or KK) avenue is small and simple. It seats approximately 15 people and resembles a diner which I would expect to see on the show "Diners, Dives and Dine-Ins" on the Food channel. The menu, like the store is small and not complex. It offers 6 varieties of soup daily, along with sandwiches and a daily special. The grilled cheese sandwich was the daily special on the day we visited The Soup Market.
Upon ordering my friend Andy pointed out that there is an option on the menu in which one can get 3 small cups of different soup instead of a bowl of one flavor. I took this option and tasted the chicken dumpling (a daily staple at the soup market and one of my favorite soup varieties if made with chicken stock), the Mardi Gras chili and the spicy lentil soup with Chorizo sausage. Each soup was delicious and made from the freshest ingredients. There is no one day old cup of soup served in this restaurant!
The Soup Market impressed me tremendously. The soups are delicious and very good value for money. My soup trio mentioned above was priced at $6.50 and I left fully satisfied. Additionally all soups are served with freshly baked bread and butter. This venue will definitely become a staple during winter and summer months and I recommend every Milwaukean to try this out!
