My other summer favorite is Maryland Crab Soup. Gots to have steamed blue crab claws to make it properly, though. Damn, I do mis that. The canned crap from Asia just doesn't work. |

I make it so often that I'm not sure how I do it but it's something like this. I use canned tomatoes cause it's easier and good maters are hard to find in New Mexico. This serves 6 or so. 2 14 oz cans diced tomatoes, drained 1 cucumber peeled, seeded and chopped 1 medium red onion, diced 1 green bell pepper, diced 2 ribs celery, diced 1 clove garlic, minced Handful cilantro, chopped, or parsley or basil 1/4 cup olive oil 1/4 cup red or white wine vinegar Splash of balsamic Splash of worcestershire Juice of about a half lemon Little bit of sugar or honey A few shots of tabasco Tomato juice or V-8, maybe 3-4 cups Salt & Pepper Some chopped green chili if you want it hot......or not if you don't I like to blend the whole batch and then chill and garnish with chopped vegetables. An easier way is to only blend about half, faster and leaves some crunch. Not to tell a soup professional his bidness, of course, but that's an easy recipe that everyone seems to enjoy. Very refreshing. |

Where abouts on Truman road are you located? What are your hours? We'll definetly come by, not sure when or if we'll make the grand opening but will make it sometime. I love a good bean soup and my wife has been looking for someplace to get good pies to go ever since Tippens on Noland closed up. Good luck!
How will we know which soup nazi behind the counter is you? |

Best wishes, big success!
Got a street address that we could plug into Yahoo maps or anything? Afraid 'the old Trolley Diner' means as much to me as 'Turn left at that place where I buy my shoes' means to you (and I actually got those shoe store directions once from a lady in Louisiana).

I love me some good soup. That lobster bisque is one of my favs too. Where on Truman road are you? I am not real familiar with that road. Are you gonna buy as much of the veggies local that you can? People like that.

I love soup.
Good luck, Halfcan! Next time I'm in the area, I'll try and stop in. |

I think this is it.. My suggestion would be to have 2 or 3 staples favorites that are always on the menu. For example, a chili, vegetable, and onion soup all the time. IMHO it's hard to beat French Onion done right. The stronger the cheese on top, the better. Good luck dude! Nothing like owning your own joint! DT |

Halfcan,
So are you taking care of the register or back there doing the cooking and preparing meals? Did you hire a few people? I know this dude in Iowa who just got let go of his cook job might be interested in a position there. Whats the set-up man. What are your hours also. |
