The 5 Best Hot Pot Restaurants In Austin - Austin - The Infatuation

"There are a few different ways to experience DipDipDip Tatsu-Ya. There’s the standard “shabu-shabu,” where you pick from one of a few different set menus paired with a lightly seasoned dashi stock. There’s the nabemono menu, where everything arrives cooked for you in a giant bowl. And then there’s the omakase option—a fancy, multi-course hot pot experience where you’ll dip a series of meats, vegetables, and dumplings into one of a few different broths. The dining room here feels a bit like being below deck on a really nice pirate ship—it’s a great atmosphere that feels especially well-suited for date nights and special occasions. But you can just as easily opt for one of the more casual menu options and turn it into a cozy Wednesday night outing." - nicolai mccrary
