From Healthy Shabu-shabu website
Shabu-shabu is a Japanese food composed of thinly sliced beef and different kinds of vegetables boiled in water. Depending on your taste, beef can be replaced with pork, lamb, or fish. Shabu-shabu is one of the most popular dishes in Japan.
Shabu-shabu table setting
This is how the table looks like in Shabu-shabu restaurant. There are four individual pots so you don't have to argue with your friends over how the soup should taste like.
Surprisingly seasonings are fairly simple for its rich flavor. They are one raw egg, minced garlic, chili, and spring onion, satay sauce and soy sauce.
First thing is boiling the broth. It is electric cooking pot embedded on the table. The structure of this pot makes me less worried about burning myself on the flame while cooking this.
Pot temperature is adjusted by this controller attached on the table. You don't need to study Chinese or Japanese to read this remote. Red button on the left is for turning on or off the pot. Left and right arrows are for turning down or up the temperature.
This is our main dish for today. I know they are not much. When I tried Shabu-shabu for the first time, I was deeply disappointed by how small the serving can be. Healthy Shabu-shabu offers additional serving of meat or fish for people like me whose stomach is way too big for what they serve.
Once you have what you need for Shabu-shabu, all you have to do is dumping everything at once in the boiling hot pot. Cooking will be done in less than a minute. Shabu-shabu is quite similar to Chinese Hou Gou. Almost same arrangement; hot pot with chicken or beef broth, several kinds of vegetables, and meat.

Shabu-shabu comes with this noodle and glass noodle. When the soup is boiled with the seasonings and broth for a while, it generates such a rich flavor together with the meat. You should try the noodle at the end since this rich flavor will be smeared through the noodle.
After having hot soup, eating ice-cold halo-halo will give you a refreshing sensation on your mouth.
