After reading this, i just went there straight with my girlfriend. It was amazing and certainly a very exciting experience to share. Cooking your own food, being able to pick your broth, no annoying music, no hurry, the people working there are so freaking nice. I recommend it for sure. One of my new favorite place in Portland, in a neighborhood (mine) where people think there is nothing more than meth and prostitution. This is an example of a treasure and it's well hidden in the back of that mini mall ! Thanks the mercury !

holy shit! i love shabu shabu!!
