Operatic Overtures<br />
The Soup Opera Express, by three<br />
friends who met at Melbourne<br />
University’s Trinity College, opened<br />
last month at Melbourne's Chadstone<br />
Shopping Centre food court, selling<br />
healthy soup to the corporate crowd.<br />
Ex-architect Harrison Wraight<br />
explains: "I was working hard and<br />
partying harder in Berlin during<br />
my architecture study year and<br />
soup quickly became my saviour.<br />
My friends were falling in love with<br />
German ladies; I fell in love with<br />
a beetroot borscht. I always felt<br />
revitalised eating this soup, like I<br />
could keep powering on."<br />
Returning to Australia, he<br />
recruited friends Ryan Atkinson and<br />
Alex Oppes. All their soups are based<br />
on stocks slowly simmered for 12<br />
hours and their Thai Pumpkin with<br />
Coriander & Chilli and Low GI Beef &<br />
Pearl Barley are racing out the<br />
door this winter. 1341 Dandenong<br />
