    Your soup used to only come with bread, there. No apples. So, small or not, that’s a new perk to an old-timer at RevSoup. Far be it from me to look a gift apple in the mouth!

    Oh. Proportional to the sandwiches. Inversely proportional to price.

    They’re small, but they’re very tasty! I had some big Granny Smiths in my fridge that didn’t taste half as good as those little things.

    You know what the bestest apples in the whole world are? Pink Lady apples from Carter’s Mountain. I got them one afternoon up there and seriously considered going back up for more the next day. YUM!

    “Small Apples” would be a really crappy nickname.

    Better, but still kinda depressing. Besides, I think some people used to call Robert Mapplethorpe “smapples”, so its kinda taken.

    weeples? (wee+apples)? nope, already a peruvian garment (weepil)

    le petite pom? nope, already what french speaking australians call midget englishmen

    micropples? nope, already copyrighted for the unannounced impending merger btw pc and macs

    lil’ fruits? nope, already this year’s hottest selling toy in the overly sexualized tweener doll market.

    nano-toshes? nope already the collective name for the children of peter tosh.

    red delishettes? nope, already the name of a 43 year old chain smoking stripper in houston.

    small scala galas? nope, already the name of the gathering of italian film students I annually have over for oscar night.

    fuji-chans? nope, already the name of representations of Mt. Fuji in bonsai tree arrangements.

    Yeah man, I think it would have to be “Small Apples”, and I think that would totally suck. Your only hope would be to be some über tough guy and spin it ala Pauly Walnuts.

    Mr. Smallapples: What has been implied here?

    Gah! Mr Diminutive Fruits of Knowledge! I dont mean any trouble! I’ve heard “A Boy Named Sue”, and I know the consequences of fucking with anyone that as a name that implies anything but thunderstones in the yambag department. Please dont kill me and put another notch on the thick, turgid gear shift of your Hummer H3. I’ll shut up. Honest. I’ll even undercompensate so you dont have to, well… you know. Promise.

    But back to the topic of Revolutionary Soup…

    I can’t think of a restaurant I like less in Charlottesville. With the exception of the Senegalese peanut tofu soup, this place absolutely sucks. Underseasoning is carried out to a criminal level, the sandwiches are inedible, and yet, I keep going back hoping to like it.

    I know the Cville Weekly featured Rev Soup’s owner. I know he’s into literature, and stirring his soups while masturbating to Baudelaire. But really, this is a prime example of a Charlottesville restaurant that doesn’t deserve to exist.

    Using organic and/or local ingredients is something I wholeheartedly support, but they go to waste under the kitchen’s utter incompetence.

    I know I have strong opinions about restaurants most people enjoy, and I probably sound like an asshole most of the time. Still, I can’t think of a single restaurant in Charlottesville that I dislike less, and I think someone needs to come out and say it. Revolutionary soup is embarrassingly bad.

    Oh, and before I forget: Safe travels to all, and have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

    Interesting–I rather like Rev. Soup.
    I haven’t eaten my way through the menu, but have landed on some winners. The 90s club is a fine sandwich, and the French Onion Soup and cider butternut squash soups are both reliably good.
    I have noticed a lack of quality control in the kitchen, however, which seems perpetually staffed entirely of two bored 16 year olds.
    They also have a warm spot in my heart for serving bottles of wine at RETAIL prices!
