It's not hard to find good noodle soup in the Bay Area. Walk through most any city and it won't be long before a steamy finger reaches to tap you on your shoulder, beckoning you into a restaurant with the aroma of simmering broth and fragrant herbs. But what if you wanted something different from your standard bowls of ramen and pho? Something lesser known to educate and wow your palate – a toripaitan with A5 wagyu and smoked duck, say, or warming Burmese coconut soup or Vietnamese bun bo hue (the "best noodle soup you've never tried)? Many restaurants are happy to oblige, if you know where to look. So pick up your chopsticks and spoon (or in one case, dinosaur-sized rib) and check out these 11 places serving more-unique noodle soups in the Bay.
