About
Shabu-shabu or Hotpot is a Japanese, Chinese or Korean dish featuring thinly sliced beef and vegetables boiled in water directly on the table, served with dipping sauces. Shabu-shabu was introduced in Japan in the 20th century with the opening of the restaurant "Suehiro" in Osaka, where the name was invented. Its origins are traced back to the Chinese Hotpot. Shabu-shabu is most similar to the original Chinese version when compared to other Japanese dishes such as Sukiyaki. At the Alegria Shabu-Shabu Restaurant we serve you thinly sliced aged tenderloin beef, aged pork loin, Salmon, Cream Dory, Calamari's, Shrimps, Prawns, Clams and Crabstick, served with Tofu, different organic vegetables, including Shiitake mushrooms and Enokitake mushrooms, as well as rice noodles. The dish is prepared by submerging a thin slice of meat or a piece of vegetable in a pot of boiling broth and stirring it, or grilling the meat on a separate table grill. Cooked meat and vegetables are usually dipped in Ponzu, Sesame Seed sauce, and other sauces before eating. We also serve a bowl of steamed or fried Rice and a bottle of ice cold SoJu, a distillate from sweet Potatoes and a platter of fresh fruits. Once the meat and vegetables have been eaten, the leftover broth from the pot is customarily combined with the remaining rice and egg, and the resulting soup is usually eaten last. Come and try our Shabu-Shabu, we are sure you will like it!
