Angela Kyee Gelena. The person who I
am closest to in our department back when I was still in Malaysia. When I got
the chance to go back to Malaysia for work, ofcourse I would spend some time
with Angela! She suggested Arashi, her current favorite restaurant that time, a
Shabu-shabu specialty store that I have visited long time ago with some of my
friends Lance, Barney and Stinson.
What I love about this place is the
intricate design of the place. One would have mistaken it to be a fine dining
place because of the ambiance that it gives you. You do not need to book it in
advance for they have quite a number of seats but I guess during the peak
season like Chinese New Year, this place would be jammed pack.
I let Angela order as she is the one
which loves the food her and I trust her judgment. The typical shabu-shabu was
ordered with Miso Soup (I do love Miso soup) and beef & pork for our meat.
You might ask what is Shabu-Shabu, to start it up restaurants which serves this
would have an electric stove or rather the normal gas type stove where you
could heat the soup that you have chosen and put different meats (fish, beef,
pork) and vegetables. You are the only one who would decide what you will put
inside the soup. After some time when it is already cooked, this is enjoyed
with different types of sauces.
Thank you Angela for taking me here again

This bowl contains uncooked vegetables, meat and
tofu which you will cook in the pot together with the soup (in our case our
favorite Miso Soup)
|
We decided to add in some noodles for carbs and
ofcourse more meat to satisfy our cravings
|
This is how you do Shabu-Shabu. I could say that
Angela is an expert here. Haha

Who wouldn’t love those chandeliers? Each table
has its little chandelier and a grand one could be found in the middle of the
restaurant

Thank you so much Te for bringing me here. I
always enjoy your company!
