Shabu on Fire — Restaurant in Huntington Beach

Best Shabu Shabu in Orange County! Same owner as Sushi On Fire next door. So you can order of that sushi menu too if you like. But the Shabu is awesome. You choose your meat, and choose your broth. I highly recommend the Tonkatsu broth (aka pork broth). If they don't add enough to your water and the flavor is too mild, doubt hesitate to ask for more Tonkatsu to get a stronger flavor. They also give you a complimentary plate of a variety of Asian vegetables.

So what is Shabu? Well you basically cook your own food by dipping thin sliced meats and vegetables into boiling broth. Eat as you go. Then at the end when you're starting to get full, just throw the rest of everything you got into the broth and then they'll dump it all into a soup bowl for you. Eat that soup until you can't eat no more. I dare you to try to finish it all!

And here's a secret, ask for Saki Punch. It's basically like Vodka Pineapple...

I would wait the line at sushi on fire any day over this place. I accidentally came here by mistake, and boy did I regret that. My sushi looked like it had been sitting out awhile as the avacodo was browning and the rice had fully soaked in the fire oil they put on their 911 roll. I still ate it, regretfully, as I had expected that a restaurant would not serve me SUSHI that had been sitting out. The taste was not great. I couldn't even taste the spicy tuna (my favorite part) due to the amount of fire oil. After eating there I now have diarrhea and would like to never eat there again. The service was good but the food is quite possibly deadly as it would seem there is no quality...

So much fun!!!!!

I had no idea what I was doing whatsoever. The staff behind the counter helped me out every step of the way.

For those who have not been here; Your get to cook your own ramen "hot pot". They will ask what kind of meat you want (I got the combination) and what broth base you want (I went with soy). You then wait for it to heat up and start adding the ingredients in as you feel necessary( I needed help). Once cooked, you are able to dip into funky sauces and try it many different...
