Asked

Trista here, and last week in The Wrap (at the bottom of the newsletter) I admitted that I have gone into soup mode and asked for some of your favorite recipes. Thanks to everyone who sent me their fave soups — I can’t wait to make them. But when I’m not in the mood to cook, I want to know who has the best soup in Chattanooga — that’s where you come in.

Whether you’re a fan of chili or creamy butternut squash, there’s a soup for all of us that hits the spot. 🍲 Question is, where can we find our match made in soup heaven? Let us know so we can make the ultimate guide of the best soup in Chattanooga.
