bisque is a smooth, creamy soup with origins from France, typically made using a strained broth of crustaceans like lobster, crab, shrimp or crayfish.

Occasionally you need a shot that's not in the coaching manual

This week, the caption competition was won by Paul, with the following topical observation:
