I just went to a shabu-shabu restaurant--my first time, having
avoided them in Japan (thinking if I wanted to cook, I'd do it at
home--which, for some strange reason didn't extend to the
do-it-yourself Korean grill places). One of my selections was
tripe, which would seem to indicate I like it. My broth
selection, tom yum, actually counteracted the tripe's flavor, for
better or for worse. I like it the taste (if I am in the mood for
that), but it is obviously a texture thing too.
