This bisque was a bit too bland for my taste. I had to add some extra salt and pepper to give it some flavor.

This bisque was an absolute delight! The flavors were rich and creamy, with a hint of sweetness from the squash. I especially enjoyed the crispy sage leaves as a garnish - they added a nice textural contrast to the smooth soup.
