Default Tenor CS is a Master Teppanyaki Chef

For Christmas, my wife got me the "Be A Chef" experience at Benihana. I got to visit twice, once to train, and once to cook for my party. Believe me, it is WAY harder than it looks!

My Gangsta Pose



Outside the restaurant



Cutting off the shrimp tails



Notice my Mickey Mouse head rice (We are on Disney property, after all)



It was a great time, and one of the best gifts I've ever gotten.

Default Re: Tenor CS is a Master Teppanyaki Chef

I did do the onion volcano, but I was never able to catch the shrimp tail in my hat.

It was a blast, but I must say again, it is a lot harder than it looks. You need great knife technique, and a third hand sometimes because you have 3 main tools; spatula, knife, and fork.

Plus, the table is very hot (500 degrees) and it sits kind of low for me, so I had to kind of bend over a lot, and my lower back was killing me after each course.

It was TOTALLY worth it, though.

Yup, I was able to sit, eat, catch my breath and relax after each course.

Nope, their restaurant is called Rice & Co. But it was a bit intimidating cooking faux-Asian food for a real Asian whose family also happens to be chefs/restaurant owners.
