Sooz's Famous Cinnamon Beef Noodle Soup

tomte and gidgiddoni had a Soup Party this evening (basically, they made a bunch of soups, invited a ton of people and we all brought different breads to go with it). I decided to get a bit creative with the bread thing and so we hauled our double long cast iron griddle with us... and I made hoecakes using a recipe I got from Good Eats with Alton Brown.

Now, I'd intended to take a photo of the hoecakes cooking... since I thought that would be somewhat interesting and rather cool (I will say right now that mine look nothing like the photo on the webpage I linked to above... but they're still darned tasty). But then, of course, I ended up getting way too caught up in the actual *cooking* of said hoecakes and completely forgot.

So, instead, you're getting a photo of my favorite soup of the evening: ( Cinnamon Beef Noodle )

Oh my gosh, you guys... you have no idea. Every time she'd talked about making this soup, I've wanted to try it and it was incredible! Absolutely lived up to my imagination on how good it could be and really like nothing I'd ever tasted before. Definitely going to get the recipe and try making it sometime!
