خلفية ثقافية
Soup is a mandatory part of the 'Obedno Menyu' (Lunch Menu). Most Bulgarians feel a meal is incomplete without a 'topla supa' to start. The distinction between 'Supa' and 'Chorba' is common across the Balkans, with 'Supa' often being seen as more 'refined' or Western. Chicken soup (pileshka supa) is specifically called 'Bulgarian penicillin.' It must always be served 'topla'. Offering someone 'topla supa' as soon as they enter your home in winter is a sign of being a good host (domakin).
The 'A' Rule
If the noun ends in 'а', the adjective usually ends in 'а'. ТоплА супА.
Tarator Alert
Never ask for 'топла супа' if you want Tarator. You will get a very strange look!
