Shabu Shabu Tandane was founded by three friends who previously worked in well-known chain restaurant groups, pooling their resources to create "One Meat, One Craft, One Sauce." This is the main selling point of the boutique yakiniku restaurant "Shabu Shabu Tandane" in Taipei, where the menu features a variety of cuts from Japanese, Australian, and American wagyu beef. The chef customizes the cutting based on the different characteristics of each cut, producing five thicknesses: cube, thick cut, belly, sashimi, and thin cut. Through different cutting techniques and sauces, the best texture and flavor of the beef are showcased, embodying the spirit of "knife skills are culinary skills."
The dining model at Shabu Shabu Tandane is primarily à la carte, with a set menu priced at 2380 per person. If you have trouble deciding, you can try the set menu because the culinary professionals on-site will first understand your personal preferences and dining habits to arrange the dishes or help you with combinations. You don’t have to grill yourself, and the service is really good, hence the price is not cheap.
The menu includes appetizers, salads, raw beef, meat sushi, daily limited supply (priced by grams), Japanese wagyu, Australian wagyu, pork, chicken, seafood, offal, vegetables, main courses, and desserts. Of course, we can’t forget the beer options that pair perfectly with grilled meat!
The entrance to the restaurant looks small, but the interior space is quite large, featuring private rooms, a bar area, and dining tables. The environment is bright, clean, and tidy, making it suitable for personal dining, dates for two, or larger gatherings.
We had a large group; we could provide them with a budget or meal preferences, and the dishes were arranged for us. Then we could decide what to keep or modify. Some dishes are served individually while others are for sharing, with an overall price around 2500 per person, so you might want to reference the serving sizes.
Combo of Small Dishes 💰120
Kimchi, pickled radish slices, pickled bean sprouts.
Cod Crab Quinoa Salad 💰100
The vegetables maintained their crispness.
Sea Urchin and Raw Beef Hand Roll 💰320
Sushi rice topped with raw beef, layered with sea urchin. This extravagant combination brings together the salty umami of the seaweed and the rich melt-in-your-mouth beef, creating a luxurious taste. Although this dish doesn’t usually fail, it stands out for its extravagance.
Raw Scallop and Beef Sushi 💰420
Sushi rice topped with raw-grade scallops, decorated with salmon roe, and finally covered with piping hot, juicy, tender beef. I think the freshness and tenderness are excellent.
Australian Thick-cut Beef Tongue 💰980
Rich in fat with a chewy, tender texture that bounces in your mouth, paired with refreshing fruit-flavored radish puree.
(Single Slice) Japanese A5 Chuck Flap 💰345
Even fat distribution and beautiful color. When grilled with marinated grapes, the combination with the grapes creates an unexpectedly delightful texture, with even fat distribution that is refreshing.
(Single Piece) Australian Riblet 💰195
(Single Slice) Thick-cut Diaphragm 💰195
The diaphragm at Shabu Shabu Tandane is on the thicker side, with a rich fatty fragrance and chewy texture.
