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.[clarification needed] Fung comes from the use of chicken in the soup while "Lung" comes from the use of snake.
"Feng" means Phoenix in Chinese. "Lung" or "Long" means dragon.
