At Rokaru Shabu Shabu, we take pride in supporting local businesses. That’s why our menu includes several locally sourced ingredients, including the very popular Kauai Shrimp.
According to the Kauai Shrimp website, Kauai shrimp are raised in pristine, well sourced, salt water and fed a high quality diet with NO chemicals or antibiotics ever used.
“Our farm and hatchery use sustainable hydro-electric power to operate all electrical systems in the production of Kauai Shrimp.” explains Kauai Shrimp Company. “Well sourced, pristine, saltwater is filtered through the volcanic sub strata of the island for use in the shrimp ponds.”
Combine all this with Kekaha's sunny weather and West Kauai aloha, and you have simply the best shrimp you’ll ever taste.
Of course, we recommend eating Kauai Shrimp in your favorite broth at Rokaru Shabu Shabu. Kauai Shrimp takes about a minute or two to be cooked to perfection in your hot pot.
