Couple places in Seattle do this too, it rocks

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 weeks 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

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

ty for taking the time to post that. I will check them out.

I missed reading the L. Soup fights sound messy.

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 27 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

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

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks 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?

[–] the_q@lemmy.zip 13 points 2 weeks ago

Chili cookoffs but soup.

[–] Fmstrat@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks 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 2 points 2 weeks ago

That sounds really fun. Im jelly

[–] RaoulDuke@leminal.space 10 points 2 weeks 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.

[–] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Bezos’ offering

Whole Paycheck(Foods) soup bar

Quality questionable?

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

"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?!?

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

Don't doubt Bender Rodriguez cooking skills!

[–] halvar@lemy.lol 6 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] crazycraw@crazypeople.online 6 points 2 weeks 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.

I think that's just a potluck.

[–] Rcklsabndn@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] DetachablePianist@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks 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.

[–] miked@piefed.social 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

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 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks 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.

[–] jeeva@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks 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.

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] BlueLineBae@midwest.social 3 points 2 weeks 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.

[–] too_high_for_this@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks 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.

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

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

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago

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

Jon Bon Jovi, where are you. Please respond

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] JandroDelSol@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks 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 weeks ago

Well that just sounds souper!

You can curse on the internet

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

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

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Fuck me, I'm in!
