The kids at KCJS who organized this did this last semester too as a way to hang out and bond with everyone and what a better way to get to know one another than by stuffing our faces full of delicious all you can eat food.
The way it works is you dump veggies and meat into the pot and cook the food yourself. Your there for an alloted time so you can keep on ordering as much as you want (as soon as our plates of meat and veggies were finished we'd ask for another round XD). You can also ask for all kinds of noodles and rice and tofu to dump in the pot as well.
Lets just say I hadnt been this full in quite sometime.
It was amazing...I wish we had something like this back in the states.
Shabu Shabu exists in the states! There's this really nice (kinda hipster place) near my house, but it's not all you can eat, nor very cheap...but it's damn good.
ReplyDeleteThere's a Chinese version too that I only know as hot pot, which is pretty goood too. Sometimes, an Asian org at one of the other colleges will have a hot pot party. We should go if there are any next year haha.
OH MY! When said hot pot parties happen again...take me with you! :')
ReplyDeleteHaha, this was so epic though. I wish there was one in the states that was all you can eat though. It was a blast. Apparently you can also turn it into a nomihoudai (I think you'd enjoy that most of all...haha...its the same thing as a tabehoudai but instead...when your glass of beer...or whatever alcohol of choice your having is empty...you get more!!!! XD). ive yet to experience my first nomihoudai but am def looking forward to hopefully having one soon.
Yum, nabe. :D I had that at my Kaiwa partner's house yesterday for a birthday party.

Hot Pot City is Chinese in SF and it is all you can eat. Shabuway in Downtown MV is not all you can eat but yum. You also must discover the joy of all you can eat Korean BBQ at Palace BBQ in Sunnyvale. I am all about the food kiddo... (Amy)
