I had eaten Shabu Shabu before, but it was a few years ago in NY. I really enjoyed it and had a craving for it, so my boyfriend and I researched a place in Federal Way to eat this dish. Upon entering the restaurant, the ambiance was mediocre. Once we were seated at our table there was an awful stench emanating from the booth and floor. When I gagged, my boyfriend asked if I wanted to leave, but I really wanted Shabu Shabu so I said no. We ordered an appetizer of tempura which was pretty good and then our meal started to arrive in waves. The service was slow and unfriendly and the waitress never bothered to ask if we had eaten the dish before and needed some tips. After trying the soup like dish we were pretty satisfied (although it was nothing like the Shabu Shabu I had eaten in NY). After eating one small bowl, I was going for a second helping when I started to ladle broth into my bowl. When I looked into the ladle, low and behold there was an EARWIG in our soup. I couldn't believe it and almost threw up. My boyfriend immediately got up to tell the waitress and inform her that we weren't paying for the $37 dish and all she said is that she would bring us a new dish out. After that, there was no way we were eating anything from this restaurant, but we offered to pay for our appetizer, which they gladly accepted. The waitresses nonchalance shocked me and she acted as though we ought to pay for our meal. I will never go here again and in fact, I am reporting this to the Dept. of Health.
