SHABU-SHABU with Ou Mushin and An Yang

Last Monday (July 18, 2011) was a holiday. I was so tired from a party event the night before. Our plan was to go around places in Ikebukuro and stuff. Good thing they decided to just chill out and just eat shabu-shabu coz if not, I might be dead now! Kidding! Exaggerating things.

Shabu-shabu is a Japanese variant of hot pot. This is my 2nd time to eat shabu-shabu and it tasted really good.  It was kinda different from the 1st time I ate shabu-shabu in a restaurant in Phil.. They put a lot of ingredients for the soup, it was really tasteful, SPICY and delicious unlike the first one that I have eaten before. Firstly, we all met at Ikebukuro Station. Then, we went to a nearby convenient store where I also found a `flour tortilla` that my Boo has been searching for. They bought the ingredients there and lemons for me coz my throat was hurting. Anyway, we walked under this heating sun.

Look at those chili peppers.These is how they made the soup very tasteful up to the 5th kind of meat they put. Water.Cooking Oil.Garlic.Chinese blah blah (I dunno the name but An Yang brought it for the soup.).

Here we go!!!

 

Salt and Chili Sauce from Mt. FujiOu Mushin and An YangI dunno how many times we have eaten together but we always do it coz we love food. Chinese are awesome. Indeed, they are open-minded and fun to be with. Regardless of the language-barrier, they have this characterictic that I`m kinda finding it hard in Japanese people. Anyhow,let`s continue...These two said that the best partner of Shabu-Shabu is a not-so-cold TEA. It did so but I still prefer water among other drinks but Acerola is my favorite right now. Whhhaaaat!!!?? I`m confused! They cooked meat 6 times and shrimps were the last one.Shrimp on hot pot

I was about to have a dance lesson after that Shabu-Shabu marathon but I was really tired and there were lot of things to do. I thought I wouldn`t be able to eat dinner but around 9pm, I got hungry. My stomach is really amazing. Thanks to Ou Mushin and An Yang for always being so jolly, happy and fun to be with. Let`s do this again.

WITTA BEGO!!! <3
