Another soup review! NOT to be confused with my last review of this delicious soup, but I decided to buy this Wolfgang Puck Chicken and Dumplings soup in hopes it would be similar to this one!
So, the other day I came home from the gym and was HUNGRY. You know- when your hungry and pretty much you’d eat anything, and what you do eat, usually tastes so good. Even spinach would taste good. OK…that may be exaggerating, given the fact I hate spinach (I know….shame on health nut!), but you know what I’m talking about ; )
SO ANYWAY, I decided to try out this new soup as part of my lunch. Here’s what it looked like transferred to a bowl…
Here’s the soup, I tried to find some of the actual
contents of the soup (there was not a lot..it was mostly broth)
The “square” could have been a dumpling or a potato piece. They both looked the same.
So, as you can see…mostly broth, a few carrots, a few potato pieces, a few square dumplings(weird) and a few pieces of chicken. This was not a filling soup. You can guarantee it I had something else to eat after this soup. I considered it my appetizer.
Starting with the broth, it was sort of thin but also had a bit of an oily consistency I didn’t like. The chicken was horrible. It was soooooo chewy, like the bottom stalk of an asparagus. Chew. Chew. Chew. The carrots and the potatoes were mushy. Like the second I put it in my mouth it turned to mush. Not my kinda vegetable consistency. And, the dumplings were basically bland noodles. I thought they were potatoes at first. Then I realized they were dumplings. ???
Overall, waste of money. I also felt like it was underseasoned and needed some salt. I was really disappointed with this soup. 1 1/2 stars *SIGH* : (
Thanks for the post. Saved me the time of writing an identical review. Given the two “dumplings” and one piece of overly chewy chicken present in the watery broth whose “organic” butter content was more prominent than the peas, I don’t think it’s earned the right to be called chicken and dumpling soup.
yea, so unfortunate!!!
