Please come to the second annual Souperbowl! In fact, go buy your ticket now!
The good news is that we will have more soups (6 or 7 even!), delicious locally baked bread, locally brewed beer, locally made cheese and locally pickled pickles. There is no bad news (unless you count the fact that Kristi and I will likely not be trying our hand at a soup again this year. A sad year for chili lovers indeed).
We’re still organizing the menu, but we’ve heard early rumors of matzoh ball soup. Vegans and veggievores will be well-represented. Take a gander at last year’s menu for a preview of what to expect.
The stolen idea* here is that we demonstrate just how much is available in terms of local food even in the darkest heart of winter, that we stay in touch with each other, and that we eat and drink and be merry and put the final nail in the casket of January. Bring on February!
Here are the deets (More to follow, like the menu which our soupwrights are hard at work finalizing):
- Sunday, January 31
- 4 p.m.
- Haley House Bakery Cafe, 12 Dade St., Dudley Square, Roxbury
- $15
*Props to the Mad River Localvore Project out of Vermont for the inspiration for this event.

Fourth national soup swapping day!
hi! i’m really looking forward to this event. 2 questions, though. 1) i have my ticket already, but friends who are going don’t. should i nudge them to make sure they have tickets ahead of time, or is paying at the door OK? 2) is this a fundraiser? Thank you!!
Uh-oh, it looks like the online tickets are sold out! Will tickets also be offered at the door?
