Shabu Hachi

Saya dan teman saya datang ke sebuah restoran bertema All You Can Eat untuk bersantap siang. Yap, Shabu Hachi yang saat ini membuka gerai terbarunya di Museum Satria Mandala. Saya masuk di jam 12:20 dan diberi waktu hingga 14:05. Sementara, paket yang saya pilih adalah Australian Special (Rp. 178.000) dan memilih untuk membuka panggangan, yakni Yakiniku Grill seharga Rp. 35.000/ person.

Untuk kuah, kamu bisa mencicipi dulu variasinya sebelum akhirnya memilih (karena tidak bisa mengganti kuah kalau tidak suka). Jadilah saya memesan kuah Original Konbu yang katanya memang favorit dan collagen. Ragam menu di sini sangat banyak, mulai dari appetizer, pilihan daging (sapi, seafood, dan ayam) sampai dessert. Semuanya fresh! Although the price was a little on the pricey, but worth the cost!

Why you will love it ❤
1. Various options for shabu-shabu, meat and drinks. You can just take it yourself, but for premium package the meat would be brought to your table.
2. Great that they have infused water here.
3. Lots of vegetable selections.
4. Friendly and attentive service. The waitress is able to explain well the menu which is always great especially for first-timers, like me. Also, would be better if you book your visit in advance.
5. Nice ambience. While you might be distracted with all the food and lots of people during peak hour, but you can actually see that the ambience is nice. It’s spacious and comfortable to be in.

What could be improved 🙏
Personally, I wish the sauce selection was better. I think what separates one AYCE and another besides the quality of the meat is the sauce itself. While the spicy sauce was enjoyable, I think the ginger (not sure if this is actually ginger?) was a tad too dominant for my liking. But you can cut the strong taste by adding a bit of chilli and customizing the sauce.
