Originating from Mindanao, or Southern Philippines, the Law-Uy is a soup you need when your soul needs a hug. It is unique in its flavor and appearance -a soup of lemongrass with brightly coloured vegetables and topped with fish slices. For an extra pow, we recommend a touch of fish sauce to taste.
