I Tried The Brand New All-You-Can-Eat Shabu Shabu And Sushi At This Trendy Udon Restaurant

Specializing in authentic handmade udon, TsuruTonTan is known for its refined presentation, extensive research for different types of udon from all over Japan, and culmination of an original blend of flour and techniques. Its first international location in New York City's Union Square location now offers All-You-Can-Eat shabu shabu and sushi.

TsuruTonTan, named after the sound of slurping noodles (tsuru), kneading and shaping udon (ton), and cutting udon (tan), offers authentic and high quality Japanese cuisine experience. Its Union Square location recently debuted all-you-can-eat shabu shabu and sushi experience.

Guests can opt for either the $60 per person USDA Prime Sirloin experience or the whooping $130 per person menu featuring premium ingredients like A5 Japanese wagyu, toro sashimi, and uni udon.

Guests can select from one of four broths, including the Sukiyaki (Sweet soy based broth), Shabu Shabu (signature broth made of bonito fish flake, kombu seaweed, and soy), Spicy Tantan (creamy spicy based pork broth made of sesame paste and chili oil), or Soy Milk Miso (creamy miso broth with silky soy milk).

Besides a selection of vegetables like napa cabbage, mushroom, and bok choy to dip in the shabu shabu, guests can select unlimited amount of appetizers and sushi rolls. Some of my favorites were crispy Karaage Fried Chicken, Sweet Potato Tempura, Avocado Salad, Spicy Tuna roll, and Salmon Avocado Roll.
