St. Martin's Champagne Brie Soup
"St. Martin's, and their sister restaurant, Arthurs Steak House are my two favorite, quiet, romantic, restaurants in Dallas. This Champagne Brie Soup is one of their signature items. It is like velvet. It is SO easy! St. Martin's is also nice enough to post the recipe on their web site! I wanted to be sure that I posted it and "advertised" it here too, so that even folks who do not live in Dallas can enjoy it!"

St. Martin’s is in Dallas, Texas. An upscale French bistro. I have had this soup there many times & it never disappoints. It is usually served with a sour dough bread crouton. Look forward to making it myself! -
2 bouillon cubes would be equivalent to 1 litre ? -
The recipe states using 1 and 1/2 quarts of Heavy Cream, which is equivalent to nearly 1,500 ml or 1.5 litres, and somehow doesn’t seem correct.

Soup is my favorite food type. St. martin's champagne brie soup is my favorite soup. I probably won't be able to re-create it as perfectly as St. Martins - so I'm just going to go there instead! -
This soup is AWESOME! Easy to make and a big hit New Year's Eve!!
