Our soup of the week is from Chef Ryan Swarthout of Robert’s Restaurant and Wine Bar in Paso Robles, CA.  This soup is a simple, rustic, yet elegant, concoction that just leaves you wanting more.  Not to mention that Ryan is one really cool guy!  We had a great time at his place and enjoyed an amazing dinner and great conversation.  Thanks for sitting down to chat with us, Chef!!  Oh, and say hello to Trevor for me!
