Couple places in Seattle do this too, it rocks

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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

I missed reading the L. Soup fights sound messy.

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 30 points 3 days ago (4 children)

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

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

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

Is this not just an ordinary potluck?

[–] Fmstrat@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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 2 days ago

That sounds really fun. Im jelly

[–] the_q@lemmy.zip 13 points 3 days ago

Chili cookoffs but soup.

[–] RaoulDuke@leminal.space 11 points 3 days 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.

"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 2 days ago

Good catch, maybe lawyers

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

[–] crazycraw@crazypeople.online 6 points 3 days 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.

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

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 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I was gonna mention Fresh Choice, which was a "healthy" option buffet, where the two main foods were salads and soups. And since it was a buffet, you could try all the soups and make as many salads as you could with the large salad bar of ingredients.

They were gone long before the pandemic, though.

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

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

[–] CidVicious@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 days ago

I think that's just a potluck.

[–] jeeva@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days 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.

[–] DetachablePianist@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days 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.

[–] JandroDelSol@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] cornshark@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Well that just sounds souper!

[–] too_high_for_this@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days 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.

[–] BlueLineBae@midwest.social 4 points 3 days 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.

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

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

[–] brotundspiele@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

There are hop-soup tastings. Not the same as tomato soup, bit still better than wine if you ask me.

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