Speaking of Italian Wedding Soup, John and I decided to try a restaurant
called Bella Luna. Turned out to be more like a sandwich shop that also
served soup. I ordered the "wedding soup". It was the worst. A bowl
of weak, no flavour drek. It tasted as if they just opened a can of
chicken broth, threw in some spinach and a blah meatball or two, heated
it up and called it done. Progresso canned wedding soup is *light
years* above what they served.
