The lowdown on Teppanyaki
I asked a Japanese lady who married a Taiwanese to compare Teppanyaki restaurants in Japan and Taiwan. "I can't", she said, "because I never had Teppanyaki in Japan. Teppanyaki restaurants are expensive in Japan, not for common folks." She continued: "I love Taiwan Teppanyaki. They are delicious and affordable."
Here is what the world needs to know about Teppanyaki.
Here is what the world needs to know about Teppanyaki.
- Teppanyaki is the most versatile and the best way to cook
- In spite of this, it is little known even now in 2018, and not very popular except in Taiwan
- Real Teppanyaki is not about chef providing acrobatic entertainment as in the US chain Benihana of Tokyo
- The best Teppanyaki restaurants are in Taiwan, not in Japan
- There are much more Teppanyaki restaurants per capita in Taiwan than anywhere else.
- You can have a wonderfully delicious Teppanyaki meal in Taiwan for less than $5 USD.
I had this gourmet Teppanyaki meal at 江戶鐵板燒 for less than $10 USD per person. The meal included a vegetable (空心菜), fish (赤鱆), scallop, shrimp, beef, soup, rice, and grilled banana with ice cream. - You can easily have an N course gourmet Teppanyaki meal in Taiwan, and it needs not be expensive.
