Great soup and suds! Silverton, Colorado

At the end of the train ride from Durango to Silverton (see the previous post) there is a place to get food and beer that you don't want to miss. The people there are the friendliest you will find on the planet. When we walked down the dirt street towards the Avalanche Brewery we were first attracted to the fence made of snow skies that was facing the street.

We thought this was a really cool looking place!
















We were looking for a place to eat lunch before getting back on the train to return to Durango.

So in we went....and found some incredible soups. We each ordered a bowl, it comes with cornbread, and enjoyed an epicurean treat!

This was the black bean pumpkin soup, absolutely yummy! Don loved his chili chicken soup too!













and a short time later.... 
















Zack' mom supplied many (all?) of the recipes for the delicious food.









Doolie, from east Texas, was so much fun! We had a great time talking to Zack and Doolie.







The man preparing the delicious soup was Miguel Zarate and we spoke some in Spanish much to my delight! 

Avalanche Brewing Company is definitely a place you want to visit if you are near or in Silverton, Colorado! Their soups and craft beers are not to be missed!
