    Any soup is cool enough to eat on a first date. If your date gives you crap about something as inconsequential as what kind of soup you’re eating, your date should be discarded at your earliest convenience, because they have shown themselves to be an opinionated twat that will bitch about things that don’t matter in the slightest.

    Phō. I have never had a bad date while enjoying a bowl at a Vietnamese restaurant.

      And if the date is dull, at least you’ve enjoyed an excellent soup.

      Traditionally served in the morning tho - do you do morning dates ?

          She’s only got two … should I still go with the Pho? or maybe some dishwater instead?

        It might be a morning dish traditionally but it’s eaten at any time of the day in my part of the US at least (Midwest)

      And if you’re in Portland, you can always pick Pho Kim to get the sexy juices flowing.

    Just don’t eat soup on a first date. Soup is a 38th date food. Soup is what you get at a little truck stop after being stuck in a blizzard together for the last 12 hours in a car with no working heater, on your way back from Christmas. Then you get some soup and empty little bags of oyster crackers into it and you look at her and smile because you’re lucky to be with her. “Ohhh that’s so good” she says, huffing the air over the soup, and tugging off her mittens.

    If you had to eat soup on a first date, Pho is the way to go.

    I have a simple soup rule: if they judge you poorly for you or soup, judge them poorly as a person.

    Gazpacho is chilled; if that isn’t cool enough I’ll eat my sombrero.

      Yeah but if you’re expecting an ice-cold gazpacho soup and it’s room temperature, you could burn yourself!

    If you are worried about ordering the “wrong” soup, you aren’t mature enough to be dating yet. Discover yourself, then you can show show yourself to another person. Otherwise you are just wearing a mask.

    No soup. Too dangerous to eat with a long beard, for a first date. Risk making a fool of myself

      If my date had a long beard with soup in it, I’d think that she wasn’t the one for me

    Ask for scalding hot dishwater to show that you’re hardcore. A bowl of hot sauce is also acceptable. /s

      With all that cheese? Good luck not looking like a goober while eating French onion soup.

      And don’t forget about the breath afterwards.

        The cheese is on the bread, not in the soup. And there’s no garlic in it, and it doesn’t taste much like onions

        Don’t fancy yours much!

    Seconding the pho, I would even say a hot pot restaurant since you guys can make your own soups which can take some of the pressure off the conversation since you’re actively cooking and the experience will be memorable. 🤩✨

      Just as long as they’re not going to be around me for the beanie consequences to come to fruition, if you catch my drift.

    Consomme for the first date.
    Double Consomme if you really care about him.
    Triple Consomme if he is taken by the King to another duchy, and you don’t expect to see him for a long time.

    The answer to both questions is “ball soup”, but the pleasure varies between who’s giving and who’s receiving.

    Childish jokes aside; pea and ham is a good soup for any occasion.
