Are your Soups Gluten-Free?
Most of our soups are gluten-free, as we do not use any additives or flavor enhancers. All soups are prepared by us every morning in our kitchen using the freshest ingredients. We also have soups whose ingredients contain flour or soy sauce. Please ask our staff on-site which of our daily soups are gluten-free.
Can I Pre-Order a Soup for Pickup?
Yes, you can pre-order a soup for pickup by phone, email, or WhatsApp. Don’t forget to specify the size, time, date, your name, and the branch where you wish to pick up the soup.
I Visited You once, but You Were Sold out. How is that Possible?
We cook our soups fresh daily, and we do our best to estimate how much soup we will sell on any given day. But we are only human, and sometimes our predictions are wrong. Unfortunately, in winter, there are sometimes days when we run out of soup because we only cook it fresh.
Are your Soups Freshly Prepared Every Day?
Yes, our soups are cooked fresh daily in our kitchen on Hallwylstrasse.
Do You also Offer other Dishes?
Yes! We also have curries, stews, gourmet sandwiches, Buddha bowls, juices, and cakes.

How Do I Best Heat Frozen Soups?
Another option is to place the frozen soup in its container into a pot of hot water and wait until the soup thaws at the edges. Once this happens, you can then empty the soup from the container into a pot and heat it over medium heat, stirring occasionally (do not boil). You can also use a microwave; the soup containers are microwave-safe.
