I'm not a big fan of shrimp, but I still enjoyed this soup. The daikon and vegetables are so flavorful that you don't even miss the shrimp.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup didn't turn out as good as the picture. It was still tasty, but it wasn't as flavorful as I expected.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I would have liked it better if it had more flavor.

This soup is a little spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time I make it, I'll use less chili pepper.

This soup is perfect for a hot summer day. It's light and refreshing, and the lemongrass and ginger give it a nice zing.

I'm not a huge fan of daikon, but this soup changed my mind. The daikon is cooked perfectly and has a slightly sweet flavor that pairs well with the shrimp.
