No, there's still no Mie Bakso. Or, for that matter, Sup Kikil Sapi. |

Counting Ramen and Pho as "soup" is weird to me since the noodles are the main ingredient.

I didn't vote for it, because on flavor alone it doesn't hold the top spot, but in terms of sheer comfort and drinkability, I really don't think you can top miso soup. I could probably fill my coffee thermos with the stuff and just sip on it all day, every day. Why have I never made miso soup before?
Oh, and I voted for Tom Kha, because of the ones I've had it's the one I like best, but there are many on this poll I have never had.

Back in the 70s my family on occasion used to go to a rather shabby Indian restaurant, probably the only one in the city at the time. It wasn't high-dining by any stretch but it was solid, consistent and cheap. It was from this restaurant that I first tried to recreate a recipe, their Mulligatawny soup which I *loved*.
Finding recipes back then wasn't easy, but I did manage to find a Mulligatawny recipe and made it once. It was disappointing. So the next time we went to the restaurant I went into the kitchen and asked the chef for his recipe, which was this:
Chop a big pile of garlic and ginger and fry it up with Sambar powder. Add some leftover chicken and a can of Campbell's Cream of Chicken Soup with a can of milk and let simmer. Add leftover rice and a large slice of lemon at serving.
I still make this on occasion - it's a good quick warming winter's soup, especially when you go heavy on the ginger. And it was an early lesson on how restaurants actually work, at least on the low end.
Anyway, I voted Mulligatawny for nostalgia's sake.

Tough choice between avgolemono and tom kha for me but I decided to go for the former because I make it a bit less often.

1. pho
2. WRITE-IN: Mercimek Çorbası, or Turkish red lentil soup
3. pozole (verde)
4. ramen
5. pozole (rojo)
I guess goulash counted as a stew?

Perfect soup to take to a key party. |

Who WOULDN'T vote for pho?! (Sorry, not intentionally responding to all your comments today.) Mrs. Snape and I were just talking last night that Dallas must have some poor pho, because neither of us has ever been bowled over by the dish. Filling, certainly not bad, but not amazing. Nothing that should inspire the considerable passion I see here, other food rags, and from otherwise haters of all things like Bourdain. Admittedly I don't try it very often, due to so many mediocre experiences, but I've never had a pho broth that I felt had very much flavor. |

I mean I like it, it's not my fave soup of that ilk but I like it... but I'd definitely never describe it as not having very much flavour. |

Who WOULDN'T vote for pho?! I really like pho, and when it's good it's really good. But a top notch bowl of ramen is practically life-changing. |

Korean rameyeon is loads better than Japanese ramen. I thought it was just nationalism, when I first got here, but the textures are different and Japanese cooking just doesn't have any spice to it.
Also, Korean rice porridge / soup is all pretty good. Like chicken soup with rice, but super thicc.
