Lung fung soup (龍鳳湯; pinyin: lóng fèng tāng), also referred to as Dragon's soup[1] and Dragon phoenix soup, is a thick seafood or gou rou soup made with lemon, chili peppers, chicken, snake, and Chinese vegetables.[1] Other variations could include a vegetarian version of the same with mushrooms instead of seafood.
