Yes, they only put a 1 heaping tablespoon of garlic butter in the rice for a party of 10.and charge $2 00 extra per spoonful or $5.00 for a small container if you want more flavor and we all felt ripped off!!!

Congratulate the chef here for skill, perseverance, and heart.

[@TravellingFoodie]

So much yes to this! 🙌 I'm surprised with all the negativity in the comments

[@lisap.1826]

Everythinh looks amazing! I'm allergic to shellfish but I would sit and watch him prepare it. Those darn onions refused to cooperate. He handled their disobedience masterfully.

[@TravellingFoodie]

Yeah, the show itself is worth the meal, and you can skip the shellfish. There's chicken and steak too. Lots of options. Yeah, and he admitted he got nervous because I was taking a video. But he handled it so well. If you watch the 2nd video on our re-visit, he owned it!

[@garykindredjr3294]

I've eaten here probably over 50 times and I still sat here and watched this video for 18 minutes of my life 😂

[@TravellingFoodie]

I don't blame you! 😂 It's so good and the show is so entertaining! Have you seen part 2?

[@a7thocean]

Anxiety. I am a hibachi chef myself, i deal with what this chef deals with, new tricks kill me, but i want something new all the time, my hands shake like they are not mine, my heart beats like crazy, cant control myself anymore and I know they see it, which brings me more stress... leaving me no choice but hoping i can get over with it soon. .. I learned something... I do this coz I can! and no one else! and I do this just because I can!

[@TravellingFoodie]

I really agree on what you say here!! I'm don't know why there's so much negative comments! The chef did tell me he got nervous especially when seeing that I was filming too.

[@jjones4662]

I respect what you do..... I noticed 3 Shakers for the rice.....Salt, Pepper & Sugar???? Is that the Recipe?? Thanks in Advance.....

[@batchagaloopytv5816]

j jones sesame seeds are third shaker 👍

[@nsmilitia]

kairat kert hey I am a hibachi chef myself an the best way to deal with anxiety doing new tricks is actually not caring at all about the mistake. Just practice a few times in the back kitchen. Get comfortable doing it like it’s a no brainer. When u get a table don’t think, just do it. You will get satisfaction just attempting it . And if you do it perfect the first time then it’s a bonus. Every time I mess up and we all do, just play it off and say Japanese mistake or come back tomorrow and move on from it. Remember our job is 90 percent feeling and 10 percent thinking. 5 percent of thinking is how to cook each table order and the other 5 is how to keep the customers comfortable when it get extremely quiet. Remember go with the flow. Feel fluid and remember if you are comfortable so will your guests. Hope this helps you. Took me few years o understand this perspective and even doing this for 10 years I get nervous sometimes too.

[@mathieumartins1904]

Yes we can!

[@ColinMurphy9]

I'm sure he was nervous with the camera

Teppanyaki in Tokyo: "that'll be $500" Teppanyaki in North Merica: "Are you gonna do the Onion Volcano?"

[@TravellingFoodie]

cool right? Such a great show

[@sandrobindelli5607]

Debashish Avasia Seriously? It's pretty standard....nowaday it seems that any Asian guy out of work can be a Hibachi Chef. Back in the day (late '70s) when I went the first times as a kid to a Teppanyaki, it was in Hartford CONN if I recon, this style was not at all common and the performers were real japanese artists with decades of training...I remember them doing crazy tricks with knives and flames, manipulating eggs (still in the shell) with those paddles like crazy without braking them, the shrimp for instance would be cut, cleaned and flung directly (perfectly) in each customers plate. And each time was different. Now it's about 10-12 years that most do the same routine and some can't even do that (like this guy).

[@hazelem1266]

Love the knife skills and showmanship. Absolutely love it. And of course the food.

so fun to watch the chef cook such a delicious meal!
