This week’s team lunch was supposed to be at The Greek in Yaletown. We walked there on such a gorgeous day, but it was closed.
I started panicking about what to do next, but then we turned around and spotted Banter Room. We checked the menu and decided to go inside.

Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup from Banter Room |
I ordered the grilled cheese and tomato soup since I didn’t have much of an appetite. Both turned out to be absolutely delicious. The tomato soup was thick and rich, with a velvety, almost creamy texture that made each spoonful feel indulgent. It had a hint of roasted garlic and basil, adding depth to the fresh, tangy tomato flavor. The grilled cheese was made with soft, perfectly toasted sourdough bread, with a crisp golden crust on the outside and a gooey, melted blend of cheeses on the inside. The cheese had a sharpness that paired beautifully with the comforting warmth of the soup. Together, it was the ultimate cozy meal.
