"We’d like to officially submit the canh chua cá trê at Bodard Bistro for the best soup in Houston. The decor here is simple, save for a few flourishing houseplants, but the ambiance isn’t why you’re here. The canh chua cá trê, a Mekong Delta staple, is bright and refreshing, with a heap of tang from tamarind and pineapple. It’s like somebody planted a vegetable garden by the beach, and then made a soup out of it, with whole tender filets of fresh catfish, stewed tomato, okra, and a melody of sharp herbs. Ladle a few spoonfuls over rice and have your day transformed. " - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
