Union of Genius: An All Soup Restaurant in Scotland

I recently came across a tweet from Union of Genius about soup. With a little delveing on their website I learned that they are all soup restaurant in Scotland. Having throw around that idea myself, I was excited to chat with Elane Mason, owner of Union of Genius, about this fun restaurant concept that centers around everything soup.

Opened since October 20111, Union of Genius has experienced huge praise for their passion, concept and their high quality soups that Elane told me has reduced her to tears. Adding, “I am incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved in such a short space of time and am looking forward to an ongoing time of creation and invention (without a doubt, the recipe-inventing is the best part. And feeding folk. That’s also the best part).”

Featuring six new soups everyday, Union of Genius creates their soups with fresh and locally-grown produce. They also have vegetarian and vegan soups, and they feature three soups that use ingredients that are currently in season. While looking through their menu I loved checking out their delicious soup options like Coronation chicken with almonds, Chorizo, tomato and butterbean, Spring green soup with beans, Scotch broth, Potato and parmesan and Hungarian Gulyas with dumplings! Additionally, all of the soups are included with locally-baked artisan breads and a selection of toppings.

An innovative idea, Union of Genius is a brilliant ode to soups, creativity and a passion for food that is exciting for soup lovers everywhere.
