Japanese teppanyaki on a flat-top hibachi grill, the same discipline as the hibachi restaurant, performed in your own space. Fried rice, vegetables and the selected proteins are cooked to order, with the knife work, the onion volcano and the toss-and-catch performed through the service. Gluten-friendly, halal and vegetarian versions exist for all of it.
