We have a great recipe for Cheddar Helles Soup courtesy of our friends at The Alpine in the Junction. The Alpine is one of our favourite spots to grab food and enjoy their great selection of beers. We really miss being able to watch a game and catch up with friends there. Looking forward to being able to sit out on their patio again too. It's a great place with great food and service.
