Hepcat is under the weather so I brought home some chicken soup from Get Fresh to help him get well.

You know, chicken soup is as good as ten mothers or something like that.

I stop in at Get Fresh once a week on my way home from a weekly appointment in the South Slope. I always have a nice conversation with one of the owners (at least I think she’s one of the owners).

We’ve had two dinners from Get Fresh: short ribs and chicken pot pie. I particularly enjoyed the chicken pot pie. I am such a sucker for comfort food like chicken pot pie. Their mac ‘n cheese is also wickedly good, filled with cheese and oh so tasty.

Get Fresh’s chicken soup is a chicken soup any Jewish mother would love. Talk about fresh and homemade. This is totally natural, very homemade tasting chicken soup. My only comment is that it needs salt but that’s a compliment because most prepared foods have too much salt.

The soup has celery, carrots, potatoes and escarole in it and I felt like such a balabusta giving it to Hepcat. It really helped me fulfill my wifely/Jewish mother/balabusta duty without making it homemade.

Even Hepcat, who could barely talk, said the soup was good.

Two cups of soup: $8.95
