🍲 Soup season is officially here

We’re in the depths of winter, which might explain why so many people are interested in soup at the moment. Luckily, we know where you can get some tonight and every Wednesday this month.
Pedestrian Wine & Cheese is hosting its inaugural Soup Season, a month-long series that’ll allow you to try soups from some of Chattanooga’s best chefs. Here’s who’s participating:
Feb. 25 | Toby Comeaux, Attack of the Tatsu | RSVP
Each chef will prepare their soup on-site, and a complimentary 3-ounce portion will be paired with a wine or beer sample that complements its flavors.
The best part? It’s all for a good cause. If you really like a soup, you can buy a pint or quart to-go, and 100% of the proceeds will go to the Chatt Foundation.
Space is limited, so be sure to RSVP for the date you want. Happy slurping.
The Chattanooga Airport now offers valet parking right by the terminal’s ticketing area. It costs $25 per day (plus a $1.50 fee) and your car will be waiting when you return. Would you pay this to avoid a parking headache? Scroll down and let us know.(Local 3 News)
