lil café place near me does soup flights, you get like 5 lil cups of different soup and half a loaf of house baked bread.

I missed reading the L. Soup fights sound messy.

Couple places in Seattle do this too, it rocks

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

eh? Which places, I need to know. Winter is coming on fast.

[-] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip 2 points 7 months ago

Pike place chowder has a chowder sampler and the other place I was thinking was Byrek and Baguette. Looking at BB's menu though I'm not seeing one so maybe they don't have it anymore? You can get a baguette and soup combo though

[-] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 24 points 7 months ago

This unironically sounds awesome, I would go to this event.

Sign me up, too. In my mind, it comes with unlimited baguette slices and/or garlic bread sticks as well as a bar with an assortment of dozens of shredded cheeses. Also there are various soup spoons available, including the deep asian ones.

Edit: Spelling, although chesses are welcome, too.

Yes, ceramics galore, with gilded inlay and reliefs depicting the glory of historic soup bacchanalia of eons past.

Around February each year we have a SOUPer bowl potluck at work. People pitch in to bring in soups and stews and various breads. It’s fantastic. Someone last year brought a muffin tin from home to try all the different soups

[-] entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 7 months ago

Is this not just an ordinary potluck?

[-] techt@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

My town has a Chowderfest. It's great, dozens of places serve $2 cups and you walk all over town tasting and then you vote for your fav.

[-] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 3 points 7 months ago

That sounds really fun. Im jelly

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

yeah but the communal soup buckets can get grasty

[-] Mesophar@pawb.social 1 points 7 months ago
[-] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Not if it’s served by a waiter.

[-] halvar@lemy.lol 5 points 7 months ago

to the question - "anyone?" - i shall step forth in response

[-] jeeva@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

There was a lovely soup place in Iceland that did this, including a free refill of your soup. I never thought I could feel so overly full with soup.

[-] RaoulDuke@leminal.space 5 points 7 months ago

In my city we have Souper Bowl. It’s an event where local restaurants make their soups and you vote on the best. It’s a pretty cool event.

[-] Rcklsabndn@sh.itjust.works 5 points 7 months ago

Logistically, it's a fuck load more work to cook a dozen soups than to pop a dozen bottles.

[-] crazycraw@crazypeople.online 4 points 7 months ago

I'd climb aboard this soup train.

I'd sail on this soup cruise.

I'd drive on this soup highway.

I'd bend my spoon all over this soup matrix.

[-] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 4 points 7 months ago

Bezos’ offering

Whole Paycheck(Foods) soup bar

Quality questionable?

[-] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 5 points 7 months ago

"Made with real food ingredients"

Did a robot write this?

"Enjoy your soup, fellow human!"

Wait...is that the robot in the background, making the soup...? What the HELL is that?!?

[-] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 months ago

Good catch, maybe lawyers

[-] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 1 points 7 months ago

Don't doubt Bender Rodriguez cooking skills!

[-] BlueLineBae@midwest.social 3 points 7 months ago

There used to be a chain restaurant near my workplace called Zoup. We all loved it! We would look at the menu for the week on Monday and if one of our favorite soups came up, we would all go grab some soup and bread for lunch one day. You could also taste all the soups before getting one. It was the best! But it sadly died during COVID lockdowns. RIP Zoup.

[-] bitchkat@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

My friend used to host an annual soup tasting/swap.

[-] JandroDelSol@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

my mom's actually part of a soup club! they all bring soups and exchange them

[-] cornshark@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Well that just sounds souper!

[-] miked@piefed.social 3 points 7 months ago

There was a California restaurant chain called Souplantation that about eight soups available. All you can eat. Closed during the pandemic.

They also had the most incredible salad bar I've ever seen.

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I was gonna mention Fresh Choice, which was a "healthy" option buffet, where the two main foods were salads and soups.

[-] DetachablePianist@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

We used to have a place nearby named "Souper Salads" with an all you can eat lunch buffet. If I recall they had at least 4-5 different soups to try. Nothing unusual, just common, basic flavors, but still in a similar vein to your desire. I think they were a chain, but I suspect they went out of business.

[-] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Well coffee is a bean broth soup. So just go to a coffee tasting event. Bean heads called them “cupping events”.

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 1 points 7 months ago

It's not really ~~wine~~ soup tasting if it's not a line of people who spit it back for the next person

[-] too_high_for_this@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

My town used to have a soup based fundraiser for the local food banks and shelters. A bunch of local restaurants would donate and serve samples of their soups with bread, crackers, etc. plus all the grilled cheese you could eat. Best dinner ever.

[-] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 7 months ago

Make it a thing! Be the change you want to see in the world

[-] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Well, my parents have a gourmet club, where people cook different themes every month. So this could easily be a gourmet soup club.

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Gotta hit that spit bucket withous swallowing.

[-] Jarix@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago

Jon Bon Jovi, where are you. Please respond

[-] mika_mika@lemmy.world -4 points 7 months ago

Soup is a garbage tier food item. I really don't see the appeal besides it being cheap, I can't imagine going out of my way to seek out soup.

[-] blue9yun@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

It is clear then that you have not experienced good soup before.

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

That or they’re from a really hot place, though I absolutely fuck with a chilled borscht, cucumber soup, or gazpacho.

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 months ago

Yeah, Mika_mika's comment sounds like a campbells soup comment.

[-] mika_mika@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

My grandpa made some okay minestrone and pasta fajioulle but compared to the other dishes he made it seemed just okay. It was what he made when he was using the leftovers and remnants of all the rest of his amazing cooking. Soup is just poverty food.

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

And so is this, it's just poverty food.

Soup is just poverty food.
