I came to a shabu-shabu all-you-can-eat restaurant for the first time in a while and my excitement level is up! For lunch, it is 1200 yen for all-you-can-eat pork shabu-shabu! The pork option is cheaper, and you can choose between shoulder loin and pork belly. If you choose both options, the price goes up. Adding beef will make it even more expensive. There are plenty of vegetable options, making it very enjoyable! There are many different types of dipping sauces and condiments that get me excited. There are also side menu items like curry, rice, and noodles, which are delicious as well. With the more expensive courses, you can also order your favorite sushi. For dessert, you can make your own waffles and add toppings, which is fun! They even have shaved ice! Overall, it was a satisfying all-you-can-eat experience worth the price!

Sometimes my wife and I go out to eat, but we're at an age where we can't eat much steak anymore. So, we decided to try shabu-shabu, thinking it would be light and easy to eat. We debated between the Wagyu beef course or not, but since we were already here, we went for the Wagyu. I can't drink alcohol right now, so I appreciated the juice bar as an option. The shabu-shabu was quite expensive, but it was delicious. The fat melted away nicely, especially with the ponzu sauce. The portion size of the meat was just right to prevent overordering. It's great that there are plenty of vegetables to eat as well. If they had dessert, it would be perfect. The price makes me hesitate a bit, though. I'm not sure if I'll come back again.

Sushi (frozen) + shabu-shabu + soft drink + dessert (waffle) all-you-can-eat for around 3,000 yen per person at a family restaurant shabu-shabu place. The dinner time has a 100-minute time limit. The price varies depending on the choice of meat (pork only, Iberico pork, pork + beef, domestic beef, etc.). The system offers quantity over quality when it comes to meat, which is appreciated in households with growing boys. There is a variety of sauces and condiments to add some flavor to the shabu-shabu, preventing it from becoming monotonous. Considering the effort of buying and cutting vegetables and meat, opting for pork only allows for unlimited vegetables and can cost around 2,000 yen without drinks. This could be a valuable option even for those living alone as a hot pot alternative.

Next to the Gasto on Sangyo Road, there is a chain restaurant that serves shabu-shabu. I always had the impression that it was all-you-can-eat, so I never felt like going there. However, I decided to try it out by ordering extra meat for the yuzu pork hot pot through Uber. The broth was quite delicious and I was satisfied with the meal.
