Zoup!

200 different soups, 12 available each day. Each order comes with a big hunk of bread. Daily features include low-fat, dairy free, vegetarian and spicy selections. Try some of these hearty flavors, vegetarian split pea, chicken pot pie, twice baked stuff potato with bacon, lemon basil chicken and wild mushroom barley. Those are only a few of the many soups that will taste even better with a wedge of sourdough or multigrain bread. Along with its soups, Zoup! will also introduce Good Greens, a distinctive collection of made-to-order, chopped and tossed salads. Customers can log on to www.zoup.com to view that day's selection of soups and if desired, pre-order food for pickup (online payment is also available). Customers who choose not to order online can always visit a Zoup! store or call the nearest store to hear a recorded menu and order via telephone or fax. Eric Ersher, Zoup!'s managing partner, says, 'It's all about saving our customers time and providing excellent service.'
