Print Shop Soup // The soup to comfort the soul. It's rich and buttery, loaded with bits of potatoes and veggies. Serve with warm crusty bread. The perfect meal! | Tried and TastyThis soup is a lot of work! If you have extra hands that can help you in the kitchen, utilize them for this recipe. I’m telling you, while making this I was running circles around the kitchen stirring this, melting that, boiling this, and chopping that! Every ounce of hard work is worth every bite in the end. I’m not sure where the name comes from, but it is so delicious. It makes a TON, so make this when you are having company over or want something to give to a friend who just had a baby or surgery or maybe even a runny nose!

    What a fun surprise it was to stumble upon this recipe! I was a cook at the Print Shop in Arrowpress Square in Salt Lake City in the ’70s. The recipe looks essentially the same as the house soup we made there, except we used more roux and more cheese.

      I was going to reply that it was from the Print Shop restaurant in Arrowpress Square in Salt Lake City Utah. I love that soup.

    There was a restaurant in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah in the 70’s named The Print Shop. I believe it was in a building that was formerly a print shop. I think the area was called Arrow Press Square. This is supposedly the recipe for their cheese soup. My mom used to make it every year for Christmas Eve dinner.

        Yes, The Print Shop restaurant at Trolley Square in Salt Lake City served this delicious soup. It was my favorite lunch.

      I too was a busboy there and my mom JoAnn aka Jo or Little Jo was a waitress there as well. This is exactly the recipe that I remember, and you are correct on the area and history!
