Boston’s Best Shabu-Shabu Japanese Hot Pot Restaurants | Eater Boston

"It’s almost impossible to miss Kaze Shabu Shabu on Harrison Avenue because of the giant mural on the side of its building, in which Totoro, a famed cartoon character from Hayao Miyazaki’s My Neighbor Totoro, is seen enjoying hot pot with friends. The two-floor restaurant is spacious, making it an ideal spot for large parties. Don’t miss out on its house-made meatballs, which are extremely juicy, flavorful, and a little bouncy in texture. The menu also features multiple types of Korean bibimbap and Japanese ramen." - Valerie Li Stack
