Dish to be eaten with a spoon (typically Spanish thick soups/light stews)
This is what I'd put - anything else gives the wrong idea. I know there can be a space issue, but people - especially us Brits - really prefer to know what they're getting, and can cut up nasty if its not what they want.
For a shorter version: "A typically Spanish thick soup/light stew"

soupy dishes
This is such a hard one to translate without resorting to a long description. Hope this helps. By saying "soupy" it doesn't actually mean soup, which platos de cuchara usually aren't.

: The clearest, I think. Might sound more interesting preceded by an adjective: Valencian, local, traditional, etc.
