This is a dish that is a bit spendy, so make it on special occasions. It is a wonderfully hearty yet low-cal and light soup that I find delectable! This is a seafood-lovers delight!

This soup was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think it would have been better if I had used less fish and more vegetables.

This soup was okay. The broth was a bit bland for my taste, even after I added extra salt and pepper. The seafood was cooked well, but I found the vegetables to be a bit overcooked.
