Oh duck soup from Kim Phung how I love you and will miss you.

A few years ago Walker mentions something about duck soup and how his sister used to eat it when she was in college and it was really good. Mm ok. One day we find ourselves at the very restaurant he had mentioned with the duck soup. We ordered a bowl to share and I was more than pleased with what arrived. The duck was so rich and delicious and the broth was equally tasty and there was a pleasing variety of vegetables. It was a hit and I was hooked.

Sometime after that we drove by (Kim Phung) the restaurant while running an errand and I had it in my head I wanted the duck soup. Walker said well it’s way out of our way now but is there something else you’d like to eat? No, there is nothing else. We went to the store to search for something else and found ourselves at the meat counter asking for duck legs, of which they only had 1!

At this point I was getting hungry and cranky and I wanted was the real duck soup from Kim Phung. Finally Walker agreed that’s all he wanted also. We drove all the way back, got 2 orders to go, and happily ate our soups while watching Alton Brown talking about cooking duck.

With our impending move I knew I must have the duck soup once more. So Walker and I got 2 soups to go (1 turned out just not to be enough) and had a picnic in the park. Yum!
