        <content>A new soup place opened Monday at 200 Pine, near Battery. I tried the "Freak-O-Matzo" ($4.95 for 12 oz) and loved it. One great touch: They add fresh herbs like dill on top, after pouring the soup in your bowl. Also, the menu is presented on a huge flat-panel monitor. I plan to go back -- anyone else been?</content>

      <content>Can't wait to try it! Thanks for letting us know that it's open finally.
 
SF Soup Co. also puts fresh herbs (or cheddar cheese, or rice, or tortilla chips - depends on the soup) in there with the soup when you order it, which I agree is a nice touch.</content>

      <content>The main URL is (last I checked) just showing a splash page. But I made some guesses and found a staging site with the info. My guess is this will be at the main URL eventually.
