Soup-led Asian restaurants are judged on the broth, which should be deep and clear, and on how hot it arrives. Casserole soups are good on a cold day, and they suit a shared table. Ask how spicy each dish is, since heat levels can vary between kitchens. Takeaway soups travel best when they are sealed and eaten soon after collection.
