Get Your Slurp On: Soupspiration in Baton Rouge

by Sydney Blanchard

Baton Rougeans: what have we done to deserve this? Who have we displeased? 

Because I am 1000% done with this weather.

I want to run errands without worrying about my car turning into a boat. I'd like to leave my house without getting soaked to the bone. Ideally, it would be cool if people could stop getting into wrecks.

Really, I've only come to one conclusion here. We all need to just stay in and sleep. Skip work, play hooky from school, and binge watch the newest season of Hemlock Grove.

We're not going to judge you.

Here's some local soupspiration to either fantasize about, try to recreate at home, or heck, have GoButler deliver it straight to your door.

Lemongrass Soup at Thai Kitchen


This soup is guaranteed to get your sinuses right. Trust me.




Pho at Dang's


By now, you should be aware of our obsession with Dang's. They're even using this blog post as their listed website on Facebook.



Black Bean Soup at MJ's Cafe


Since we all just found out that red meat is "carcinogenic" to human, I figured I'd include a vegetarian option for those of us affected by the new Red Scare.



Duck and Andouille Gumbo at The Chimes


No one makes gumbo as well as my grandma, but The Chimes is a pretty close second. 



Curried Pumpkin Bisque at Latil's Landing


This curry, pumpkin, and crawfish blend is both seasonal and life-affirming.
