| - I always enjoy the Shabu Shabu here at Swish. The service here is an A-. When it gets a little busy, they do take a bit longer to bring out the ingredients needed to get started. For those not familiar with the Shabu Shabu process, it does take some time before you can start eating.
Just to give you a brief walk through:
First, you want to heat your stock up. As your stock is boiling, you want to add carrots and onions first because they take longer to cook through. Later, you can throw in the rest of the veggies as you cook and enjoy the meat of your choice.
Next, you want to build your sauce with mustard, ponzu, garlic, chili paste and onions. The key to building a great dipping sauce is adding a little of each ingredient to your own taste preference. DO NOT copy what your friends are doing because each person has their own taste preference (e.g. some prefer more garlic, some prefer an immense amount of heat). If you've never done this before, building the perfect sauce can take time. But it is worth doing it right the first time so it's easier and less time consuming the next time you visit. They give you a raw egg with the sauce. Add the yolk to your sauce and blend well. Some people prefer not to add the egg, but I love it because of the texture it adds to the sauce.
Next, take a single slice of meat and dip in your boiling broth. 10-15 seconds in the broth will cook the meat all the way through. Then you can dip it in your sauce and eat it with rice.
When you're done with your portion of meat, you can throw in your egg whites in the stock and enjoy your soup. They also give you a small portion of noodles to cook in your stock.
Shabu Shabu is certainly one hell of an eating experience you will never forget. Every meal is different and I am always learning new ways to make my dining experience more enjoyable. It is one of those meals that definitely forces you to take your time. And I guess the anticipation of prepping your food makes the food taste better (if that makes any sense).
Swish is definitely top notch for service. If you visit, don't be ashamed to ask questions because they will happily help you and offer advice.
I know this is a bit long, so I'm going to just give you a quick recommendation on what I like here at Swish.
Prime Rib Eye Shabu Shabu - Hungry portion (because I eat a lot)
Sushi here is pretty good too...
I like to get the Massive Roll and the Las Vegas Roll.
Enjoy. Bless.
