Piping Hot new Soup & Sandwich Shop “There are many aspects of Piping Kettle that drew me into pursuing it as a franchise opportunity, but what interested me the most was the history and the vision of Piping Kettle,” explains Krysten Rodwell, owner of the new soup and sandwich outlet in Hyde Park. “I liked the idea of being a part of the growth and development of a small local business that focuses on and takes pride in serving quality food. Food is such an important aspect of our daily busy lives. Piping Kettle shows people that you do not have to compromise on quality, health, or taste when getting a quick meal. That’s something to be proud of.” “ The most rewarding component of it, other than hearing the excitement when we have someone’s favourite soup on that day, is building lasting relationships within our community – lasting relationships with our team of dedicated employees, with our regular customers, with our business partners, and with other local businesses that we respect and mutually support. It makes you realize it’s so much more than ‘just soup’.” Krysten says that Broccoli and Cheddar is one of their customers’ favourite soups out of over 160 soup recipes in regular rotation. “Staples like Jambalaya, Turkey Chili, and Chicken Noodle have been long-time favourites. Newer to our menu and rapidly rising in popularity are our soups like Creamy Dill Pickle and Cheddar, Chicken Shawarma, and Spiced Red Lentil and Kale.” Soup, sandwich, salad and smoothie orders are prepared fresh for walk-in customers to take-out or eat-in, or can be pre-ordered for pick-up or delivery at www.pksoup.com. There you will find the option to place immediate orders as well as scheduled-ahead orders. “We are also partnered with all the delivery apps available in this area,” says Krysten. Looking for a healthy and satisfying option for business meetings or home or office parties? “We make catering for groups of any size very easy with our 5 and 10-litre kettles of soup,” said Krysten. “The

kettles plug in to keep the soup the perfect temperature for your entire event. Our platters of sandwiches and salads are as visually stunning as they are delicious. We are happy to put together the perfect combination for your group’s tastes and dietary needs.” Krysten says that when she is not thinking about soups and sandwiches, she likes to get out in the community and surrounding area. “There is so much going on in this city, so many experiences and new businesses to explore and try. Walking and hiking the trails in and around London offer a great way for me to spend time with my family and dogs, a personal favourite.” Piping Kettle at 1600 Hyde Park Road (at Gainsborough) opened in June. There is lots of parking available. Learn more and see the soup of the day at www.pksoup.com.
