We went to ABC for Dim Sum this weekend. パスタ The place was really crowded and a lot of people were waiting to get table. Surprisingly, we were seated pretty quickly. They remodeled the restaurant and just had a grand reopening a few weeks ago. The decor looks much more elegant than before and the bathroom is nice and clean. The Dim Sum was great but I think it's a bit pricey.

My husband and I went to Zabu Zabu in Berkeley for the first time and it was such an awesome dining experience. Wハート I definitely think it's one of the best Shabu Shabu place 肉 しゃぶしゃぶ in the Bayarea. We went on Saturday and and were so glad that we made a reservation because the place was packed. The atmosphere was nice, the quality of food and service were great. Our server came to our table often to see if needed to order more items. We ordered the All You Can Eat Shabu Shabu and Small Plates, which I think is their best deal. It costs $30/person and you get this endless selection of Shabu Shabu and delicious Small Plates.


ナイフ&フォーク What we ordered from the Shabu Shabu Menu:
1 plate of chicken
2 plates of beef
2 plates of veggies

ナイフ&フォーク What we ordered from the Small Plates Menu:
1 steam shumai
1 chicken karaage
1 agedashi tofu
1 ribeye yaki
1 tempura onion rings
3 baked mussells - the star of the nigh
1 rolled beef w/ veggies

ALL THESE JUST FOR TWO OF US
