Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

noticed several complainants about the size of these bowls..these are the standard restaurant size bowls for onion soup and the correct size, 10oz..they are designed this way for a reason. I was the head chef of a french restaurant for 8 years and have eaten at french bistros from SF to NYC to Paris and this is the proper bowl..much larger and one wouldn't be able to finish their main coarse.. fill the bowl to about half inch from the top, you can easily fit 3 sliced baget croutons on top and then cover the top with a thick slice of cheese slightly hanging over the rim then place in a broiler or salamander until the cheese gets slightly brown and bubbly.. the best part is the crispy cheese stuck to the outside of the bowl..that is a true french onion soup..I've see larger bowls but they do not work as well since the cheese will sink into the soup towards the center.. I already had a set of 4 at home but broke one so ordered 4 from amazon and was very happy with my purchase..they are exactly the same bowls I use to work with..
