Teppanyaki

Teppanyaki is a means of preparing dishes directly before the guest on specially equipped tables with an overhead hood. In North America, this method of dining is also known as "hibachi".

Teppanyaki first developed in Japan during the 1940s, from where it spread to Americal in the 1960s, achieving renown primarily through the Benihana restaurant chain. It was the Benihana restaurants that introduced the innovation of adding to the food preparation a special show performed by highly skilled chefs. At Samurai, this unusual gastronomic experience is prepared for you by specially trained chefs from Asia. If you would like to add unusual zip to business negotiations, or surprise friends or family with something completely different, then teppan is truly the right choice. Teppanyaki markedly differs from traditional Japanese cuisine. The sequence begins with the preparation of vegetables, followed by your selected type of meat, and finally with the addition of rice, complemented with miso soup. If you also enjoy a glass of plum wine with the rice, you can experience a splendid harmony of tastes. At the climax of the dinner, there comes a refreshing plate of fresh fruit. All dishes are prepared in sequence, so that all tastes can be gradually and peacefully enjoyed.

Guests may choose from chicken, beef and pork, as well as shrimp, mussels, salmon, and a vegetarian version. By request, we can also prepare you lobsters or other types of meat, if you let us know at least two days in advance.
