French Onion Soup Page

I was not expecting to find F.O.S. at The Davenport Hotel when I checked in, but noticed it immediately as I was walking towards the elevator.  Even though I was between lunch and a big dinner party, I had to stop and order a bowl.  I hadn’t even read the description when I ordered it, but when I had my first taste, I was flabbergasted!  It was one of the best soups I’ve had.  The description reads:

Washington sweet onions caramelized with sherry in an herb broth topped with a crouton, melted Gruyère cheese & green onions

It really was delicious.  The sherry stood out, and it was really hard to believe it wasn’t a beef-based broth, as it was so incredibly tasty!  I hereby reverse my assumption that all vegetable broths don’t stand a chance.
