Olive Garden has certainly had a large impact on soups with their all you eat soup and salad special. In fact, my first time ever in an Olive Garden, a potential employer treated me to lunch there and we had that very special. I tried all their soups and fell in love with their soups. My family frequently buys their bottled salad dressing as a back up for when I’m not in the mood to make my own.
Since Olive Garden’s soup and salad special was my father’s favorite whenever we went out to eat, he often treated us there. While I enjoyed their soups, I always knew that I could top all of them, I set out to do just that. My wife beat me to 2 of them, however.
