Exceeds expectations.,
The thing that sets this book apart from others I have tried is the sheer variety of interesting recipes. Sure most books cover the basics, but this also includes some very inventive combinations in addition to the classics. And every soup has been very layered in flavor and complex tasting. My personal favorite is the author’s take on spanakopita in soup form. It’s rich and delicious and quite unlike any soup I’ve ever had. The eggplant parm soup is also unbelievable. I first tried it in the restaurant and the cookbook version is identical. I also quite enjoyed the Roasted Beet and Pear Soup with Blue Cheese. I’m not normally a huge beet fan but this soup won me over. Overall, you get a breadth of recipes that not only sound good on paper, but work out perfectly when you cook them at home.
The ingredients used are also very easy to find in the average supermarket so you shouldn’t run into the problem of wanting to make a delicious soup but having no access to the raw materials. I highly recommend this for anyone who wants to expand their soup repetoire beyond the usual standards.
ETA on 11/13/13: It’s nearly six years later and I wanted to update this review to say I still very much enjoy cooking from this book. I’ve continued to try more recipes including Pumpkin and White Bean Soup, Tortilla and Butternut Squash Soup with Green Chiles, Cauliflower, Potato and Cheese Soup, Potato Crab and Gorgonzola Soup, and Butternut Squash Soup with Calvados, Gorgonzola Cheese and Prosciutto and all have turned out delicious. I still have yet to find a single dud in the book and look forward to trying the recipes I have yet to make.

A Soup for Everyone,
There are so many mouth-watering, rich, unique and comfort-food soups that I had a hard time deciding what to make first. From Potato, Crab and Gorgonzola to Apple, Onion and cheddar–they all sound so good! I decided on a vegetarian option: Spinach, Feta Cheese, and Toasted Pine Nut Soup. Not only was it delicious, but it was easy to make.
In addition to the seasonal soups, Druker has included a chapter of sandwiches and salads which are just as appetizing as the soups. (For example; The Fallwich, with sweet potatoes, cranberry mayonnaise, turkey and cashews.)
I know what I’ll be getting my whole family for Christmas this year.
