DEFINITELY, SOUP FOR ALL OF YOU. Recently, some 600 students at the University of Connecticut, along with staff and visitors, lined up in the Wilbur Cross building near Wilbur's Cafe to sample a variety of soups in an event hosted by the school's Department of Dining Services and soup maker Kettle Cuisine.

The complimentary cups of Coconut Chicken Curry, Shrimp and Sausage Gumbo, Chicken Corn chowder, Pumpkin Bisque, Steak and Cheddar Ale, Indian Lentil, Buffalo Chicken, and Chipotle Sweet Potato were served by Kettle Cuisine representatives. Within two hours, close to twenty gallons of soup had been tasted, with Steak and Cheddar Ale deemed the most popular.
