Introduction
The bicycles from this delivery-only soup heaven now service many points north of the river. Two or three varieties are offered weekly. The Soup Peddler is David Ansel, author of "The Soup Peddler's Slow and Difficult Soups" and owner of Austin's favorite food delivery service.
The Soup Peddler, David Ansel, was put to work in the kitchen at a young age.
He began the Soup Peddler from his home in South Austin, and within a few short years turned it into an internationally recognized business story.
He travels and eats. He's pictured above sampling some fine North Carolina soul food. He has eaten poblano rajas in Real de Catorce, crepes in Paris, pot pies in Northumberland, paella in Madrid, tandoori chicken in Zanzibar, stew in Lesotho, ugali in Dar es Salaam, biltong in Umtata, mofongo in Culebra, and barbecue in Clarksdale.
From an early age, the Soup Peddler demonstrated an interest in gourmet cooking, a precocious knack for style, and an undeniable sense of ease with the camera.
He was brought up on canned soup for much of his life and felt that something important was missing...
Many years later, while visiting Mexico, he ate a particularly spicy bowl of menudo...
That night, a compelling dream about soup swam through his sub-conscious...
Over the course of that fitful night, he underwent a dangerous synaptic and cellular transformation. He awoke to find himself changed into...
The Soup Peddler!!!
He cooked and biked furiously, like a man on a mission...
His experimental and fun-loving approach to soup-making won him many devotees...
Soon, the Austin media found him out and began to spread the story of this strange man in South Austin...
People began to clamor for the now highly-prized limited edition soups...
Frenzied Austinites tried to bribe the Soup Peddler to include them in his weekly deliveries...
They attempted all manner of strange and desperate entreaty...
This was a time when people's lives were wrought by a world complicated by endless food choices...
Plagued by the need for time-saving sustenance...
Yet aching for a return to the purity and simplicity of pastoral and old-fashioned goodness...
The Soup Peddler's service helped people cut through the bull of the food marketing machine...
Helped them find a calm center to the spiraling worries and tribulations of their lives...
Children were once again happy...
People danced in the streets...
Drunks once again saw eye to eye on the things that really mattered...
And Austin, Texas lived happily ever after!
