The Best Soups in Los Angeles, According to Eater Editors
"Walk into the bustling marketplace and cafe Joan’s on Third and see a vibrant strata of Angelenos congregating over the prepared foods case or asking about favorite sandwiches at the counter. The open dining rooms with communal tables lead to making new friends. Order one of the bowls of soup that change every day and you’ll be likely to strike up a conversation. As winter turns to spring in Los Angeles, the tomato and orange soup offers a hint of warmer days, with a slightly creamy soup that is well-blended and excellently smooth, finishing with a whisper of fragrant orange peel. It’s delightful, and works great as a companion to Joan’s cheesy short rib sandwich. — Matthew Kang, Eater Southern California/Southwest lead editor" - Rebecca Roland
