It takes place at the São Domingos de Benfica market in Lisbon. The entrance fee includes a drink and dessert of your choice.
Caldo verde, chicken soup, vegetable cream, stone soup or fish soup. As a starter, before the main course or just as a light meal. There’s no turning back – the Portuguese love soups and broths. If they arrive at the table piping hot and accompanied by good bread, that’s even better.
After all, how many soups could you devour in four hours? Perhaps you’ve never thought about this question until now, but you’ll have the opportunity to take up this challenge on November 30, during the Benfica Soup Festival.
Admission costs €7.50 and includes a clay bowl. With it, you can explore the various stalls and taste the variety of soups on offer. You’ll find everything from the comforting vegetable cream, to the velvety sweet pumpkin, to the traditional caldo verde and different canjas, including options with beans and leeks, among many others.
The price also includes a drink served in a glass and a dessert. If you present the Cartão Mais from the São Domingos de Benfica Parish Council, the entrance fee is €7,50.
The festival is organized by scout group 523 São Tomás de Aquino. The 10th edition will take place between 7pm and 11pm at the São Domingos de Benfica market in Lisbon.
