Rafael and I went to
Shabu Ya in Harvard Square after our dance class tonight. Lovely
Katie recommended it and it was super fun! It was really modern and space
shipey inside:
We tried the sushi. It was beautiful! Don't you love how the little orange fish eggs (I don't know the name) pop in your mouth? The soy sauce tea pot was super cute.
Raf never misses an opportunity for a mango smoothie. He loved this one:
It really was beautiful and Raf looks so sweet. :) We had
shabu shabu (which is Korean) with beef, lamb, and lots of veggies and tofu. It was really delicious, especially the lamb.
In case you don't know,
shabu shabu is when you get a pot of steaming broth (on a hot plate built into the table... cool!) and raw ingredients which you cook in the broth yourself. There are different flavors of broth. There are also vegetarian options.
They gave us some condiments (in the four little boxes) to mix into our sauce. They also brought around a cart of "complimentary veggies." It was so cute. We got some extra watercress and tofu. It was super fun and delicious! So interactive! For dessert we had beautifully presented green tea ice cream:
I
loooooooooove green tea ice cream! I pretty much love everything green tea flavored, I think. Then Raf played Street Fighter across the street:
Totally rad dude!
At first he was just calmly sticking his head out like a dog going for a ride in the car. Then Rafael and I got really excited about seeing him (of course) and he started barking at us. I think we got him in trouble. Sorry little sweetie! 
He watched us walk all the way down the sidewalk. So cute! Bye bye little guy!
Btw, he could have been a girl, I'm not sure. But dogs are boys and cats are girls, right? :) (Sorry Bruno and Emily!)
