It's all about healthy living these days. Trends come and go, but this is one trend I hope will stay because who doesn't want to be healthy and lead a long, happy life? If you LOVE soup, noodles, meat (nomz) and when you can also consume them with benefits for your health which rich awesome flavours? :D
Here in Bushido Shabu-Shabu, you get both the health benefits and also rich flavours with reasonable prices! If you are a JB kaki, Bushido Shabu-Shabu located right beside Leisure Mall - their sign is so obvious and big there's no way you could not see it! For more detailed address and contact will be given at the end of this post.
Bushido Shabu Shabu stands out from other shabu-shabu restaurants because they focus more on educating consumers on health using their secret recipe. They serve new age healthy food and promotes a new trend of food consumption, but don't be intimidated by this statement. All their dishes are unique and use only the best ingredients to make. Plus, they are tasty too! Some of the food they have here are only available exclusively to Bushido and you will not find them anywhere. That's how unique they are!
 Taman Pelangi is a busy area and it is not easy to find parking.
They take the Bushido or Samurai culture very seriously as soon as you walk into the restaurant and see these two Samurai figures staring at you. Their eyes even light up at night!
The reason why I love Japanese shabu-shabu places are because inside, the decors are usually very nicely done up and cosy to make your dining experience more pleasant. The whole place is fully air-conditioned!Â
At the sauce section, there is a great selection of sauces and other condiments. Some of these sauces are specially made by the chef. The owner encourages this DIY sauce area so that customers can be creative and mix & match their own sauces as they wish.
Fibre Mix Fruit Ice Blended
RM16.90 (1 litre) & RM8.90 (500ml)
Mango, Pineapple & Lemon (Mix Fruit Juice B)/ Dragonfruit (Mix Fruit Juice A)/ Guava
 I loved these juices, especially when they're ice blended! The whole fruit is blended including the skin, core and seed because that's where all the nutrients are yea? You can either mix and match the fruits or have one type of fruit only. There are no sugar added yet they taste so sweet, so you can be sure the fruits used are only the best.
Complimentary Side Dishes
 There are up to 43 types of side dishes available at Bushido and each is unique in its own way. These are complimentary for customers, but non-refillable.
Meat Combination (Chicken & Pork Belly) RM24.90
Meat Combination (Beef and Lamb) RM43.90
This is how one set looks like for a steamboat meal. The serving is sufficient for 1 to 2 people. There are several meat/seafood combos to choose from and the price ranges from RM24.90 to RM85.90. This combination shabu set meal is so fresh and there are other selections to choose from.
Japanese food will always have sashimi but this one is sashimi with a twist! Various raw fish such as salmon, tuna and butterfish are diced and added to this salad as an appetizer. We had the spicy salad and the sauce had a bit of Thai influence in it. The sourness really whets your tastebuds but the vegetables, especially the cabbage was a little bit on the raw side for me.
Ebi Uzura Fried (RM18.90)
Prawn meat, sesame seed and 5-spices are minced and wrapped around a single quail egg then deep fried in batter to create this interesting dish, It just looks like a fancy hard-boiled egg! Kids would love this.
These chicken dumplings are handmade by the chef as well! Crispy on the outside, savoury and juicy on the inside. You can feel the freshness of the well-grounded meat inside that have been marinated well.
