"Okay, I cheated and had this dish at Bar Americain and I have never tasted anything so good. I could have eaten it as my entire dinner (even though my entree was fabulous).
Now, that I see the recipe is posted here I'll make it for company sometime, but will take some of the suggestion: more cauliflower and less cream.

PS Check out the recipe for the pumpkin soup. It's the best soup I've ever eaten and deserves to be featured on "The Best Thing I Ever Ate," as does the cauliflower-goat cheese gratin.

"I had the pumpkin soup at Bar Americain and was tempted to order a container to-go! It's heavenly. I also saw Bobby make this on tv for the holidays and will make some of the adjustments that were suggested.
This soup is the definition of heartwarming...really, look it up in the dictionary! :-}
