New Japanese fine dining concept 212 Shabu Shabu to open in The Watermark at 410 N. Scottsdale Road in Tempe. 

Owned by Kaos Hospitality, the same company that owns 333, also in the Watermark complex. 

The restaurant will hold a grand opening celebration at 11:30 a.m. on May 11 with Mayor Corey Woods and members of the Tempe Chamber of Commerce. 

The concept’s name refers to the boiling point of water--212° Fahrenheit--and  the Japanese term “shabu shabu” translates to “swish swish,” the sound that thin slices of meat and protein make when swished back and forth in boiling broth while cooking.

Guests will be able to cook their own meat and noodles in a pot of boiling broth. Cocktails and desserts will also be available.
