These are the times that call for soup.

As we settle in for a long winter here in New England, it's no wonder that people are craving cozy comfort foods. And when it comes to comfort foods, you can never go wrong with a bowl of soup.

This writer's favorite soup is a classic: chicken noodle. Everyone loves chicken noodle, and it hits the spot every time. But of course, that's just one of a number of selections you can make. From tomato to French onion, squash, and other options like lobster bisque or clam chowder, there's all kinds of soups one can enjoy.

Of course, it's easy to get cans of soup at the supermarket, but what if you're craving some while dining out?
