Jenny Levison
If Atlanta had its own superhero, it would have to be Souper Jenny! Atlanta native Jenny Levison has been filling our bellies with delicious, homemade recipes since her first flagship café opened in Buckhead years ago. But this soup aficionado didn't start out in the kitchen — she grew up in Los Angeles and eventually studied drama at Carnegie Mellon University. Her time as a struggling actress was short-lived when she explored her other passion: food. Get a taste of what our newest FACE Jenny Levison is cooking, since food is a language we all speak.
Jenny Levison knew little about business when she started. Yet, 16 years after opening her first Souper Jenny restaurant selling soups, salads and sandwiches in Buckhead, she owns six local eateries. Her business generated more than $4 million in revenue last year. Levison, who just turned 50, said she's still having fun seeking to inspire customers and co-workers.
