There's also a private room in the back, which would be perfect for anyone looking for a spot for a group meal in Apgujeong. The whole place has a pampered feeling, so it crossed my mind that it'd work well for taking your parents out or even a date. ![Restroom entrance inside the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-07-4s1mr-900.webp) ![Restroom sink with mouthwash provided](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-08-x3vfw-900.webp) The restroom is inside the restaurant, and they even have mouthwash on hand, so you can freshen up nicely! ![Sign for the weekday lunch discount](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-09-1e1f7-900.webp) ## Weekday lunch deal: black pork belly shabu set at 20% off I visited during lunchtime, and it happened to be the weekday lunch event, so I got 20% off both the black pork belly set and the beef chuck set. Here's what I ordered: ![Menu board at Shabu In Seoul Apgujeong Rodeo](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-10-1ly80-900.webp) - 1st-grade black pork belly shabu set - Handmade raw shrimp balls - Extra meat (sirloin flap) - Napa cabbage - Assorted mushrooms - Rice paper - Matcha ice cream ![Black pork belly shabu set for two](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-11-1r0d7-900.webp) *- Photo shows a 2-person order -* ## How to cook the black pork belly in the spicy mushroom broth The black pork belly, freshly set on the table, had that vivid pink color that screams fresh. Here's a tip: once the spicy mushroom broth starts bubbling, taste the plain broth first, then add the grated garlic and chili provided, to your taste. I loaded up on grated garlic and the savory flavor really came alive! ![Basic sauces served with grated garlic and chili](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-12-xucsy-900.webp) I'd recommend mixing grated garlic and chili into the basic sauces too, to your taste. ![Pot of spicy mushroom broth bubbling](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-13-pvz3e-900.webp) ### Handmade raw shrimp balls, 10,000 won ![Plate of handmade raw shrimp ball mixture](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-14-16adw-900.webp) ![Shrimp balls cooked in the broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-15-1k606-900.webp) The handmade raw shrimp balls I'd been looking forward to were fun — you shape the balls yourself and cook them in the shabu-shabu broth. This thing is a real treasure: the moment I bit in, the raw shrimp's crunchy, bouncy texture completely surprised me. (No wonder it's the best-seller, ㅠㅠ♥) ![A piece of black pork belly cooked in the broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-16-1p7mn-900.webp) ![Extra beef sirloin flap ordered](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-17-rjwmj-900.webp) Both the pork and the beef had their own charm, and both were delicious.. ෆ ![Vegetable plate served with the shabu-shabu](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-18-17dqj-900.webp) ### Baby napa cabbage 4,000 won and assorted mushrooms 6,000 won ![Extra napa cabbage and assorted mushrooms ordered](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-19-19jod-900.webp) We ordered extra napa cabbage and assorted mushrooms, both favorites of mine. ![Plate of 12 sheets of rice paper](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-20-1u0zf-900.webp) ### Rice paper for wrapping (12 sheets), 2,000 won There's no separate warm water for the rice paper — instead you dip it right into the shabu broth and wrap meat and vegetables in it. The spicy broth's seasoning soaked in moist and delicious, which made it even more appealing! ![Meat and vegetables wrapped in rice paper](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-21-6c8qg-900.webp) ![Rosé risotto dessert made with the spicy mushroom broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-22-1bj2u-900.webp) ## Finishing course by broth: the rosé risotto Something unique about this Gangnam restaurant: the dessert course depends on which broth you chose. Since we picked the spicy mushroom broth, our dessert was rosé risotto! A staff member came over and made it carefully at the table — with shrimp mixed in for a bit of chew, and a creamy texture that was excellent. They also served a refreshing omija tea (five-flavor berry tea) alongside, which felt nice for cleansing the palate. ![Omija tea served alongside dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-23-ei4uc-900.webp) ### Matcha ice cream for dessert, 5,000 won We wrapped up with the matcha ice cream, which was clean and not too sweet! Visually it's a deep, intense green, and one spoonful brings out a subtle, slightly bitter matcha flavor. If you're expecting a very sweet ice cream, keep in mind this one leans bitter and low-sugar, so it might be a hit-or-miss depending on your taste! > An Apgujeong Rodeo shabu-shabu restaurant, Shabu In Seoul ![Deep green matcha ice cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special/shabu-in-seoul-apgujeong-lunch-special-24-g0qqx-1200.webp) ## Who should eat at Shabu In Seoul Apgujeong Rodeo?
