It’s the season of all things cozy.

That means sweaters, restaurants, movies, and most importantly, food.

There are several dishes that keep us feeling warm from the inside out, but on a chilly day, it’s truly hard to deny a bowl of piping hot soup – especially the French onion variety.

Every establishment will do theirs slightly differently, but as long as it’s got ample onions and two weeks worth of cheese on top, we’re happy to eat this nostalgic dish anywhere.
