The 20^th “Bowls & Books” Soupfest Contest will be held at the Rhode Center for the Arts, 514 56th Street, on Wednesday, March 29th. Eight restaurants will be serving from 11 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and eight different restaurants will be serving from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. The restaurants serve their favorite and best soup. People coming to the event receive a score card and a commemorative bowl provided by Copy Center. The attendees go from table to table, tasting, enjoying and scoring the soups. Where else can you eat that many soups in one sitting?
