This was the worst soup I have ever eaten. It was bland, watery, and the fish was mushy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This soup was a disaster! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out terrible. The soup was burnt and the fish was raw. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This soup was a disappointment. The fish was overcooked and the soup was too watery. I would not recommend this recipe.

I thought this soup was just okay. The flavor was a little one-dimensional. I think I would add some additional herbs or spices next time to give it more depth of flavor.

This soup was a little bland for my taste. I think I would add more salt and pepper next time. Other than that, it was a good soup. The texture was creamy and the fish was cooked perfectly.
