New Places and Fall Flavors: Perch, The Soup Market, and Uppercase

Perch opens right at 11am and I got there right when it opened. Obviously, it was empty at this time.

Although some students complain about the price, I think they need to calm down. Perch is still considered fine dining, and it's a lot cheaper than similar places downtown. For the quality of the food, the price is pretty reasonable.

I got a ginger beer :P I liked how strong the ginger was, and the sweetness was subtle. This was good stuff.

I ordered a seasonal potato corn soup with crispy onions. I loved how my server poured the soup over the dry food, which kept the ingredients firm and crispy. The soup was magnificently smooth as well. Wonderful textures <3

I also got to try the new sparkling tea cider at Starbucks. It was quite interesting; the flavor from the and syrup came separately, which was pretty cool.

I finally got to try the soup at the Soup Market at the UBC Nest. It's super nice, and warms you up on a cold day. All soup comes with bread too; the bread tastes pretty fresh, and it's flavorful (from the herbs) and soft :P They also serve sandwiches here, but I haven't tried those yet.

I hung out with Fatmine while she was at her club table and I decided to buy some pumpkin bread and a mocha for her. She didn't want the pumpkin bread...so I ate it. No complaints :) It had crunchy seeds on the crust :P
