The word teppanyaki is derived from teppan, which means iron plate, and yaki, which means grilled, broiled, or pan-fried. In Japan, teppanyaki refers to dishes cooked using an iron plate, including steak, shrimp, okonomiyaki, yakisoba, and monjayaki.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em>Modern teppanyaki grills are typically propane-heated flat surface grills and are widely used to cook food in front of guests at restaurants. Teppanyaki grills are commonly confused with the hibachi barbecue grill, which has a charcoal or gas flame and is made with an open grate design. With a solid griddle type cook surface, the teppanyaki is more suitable for smaller ingredients, such as rice, egg, and finely chopped vegetables.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>So, while at Kobe, we did dinner and Paul stuffed himself with sushi. Sue had to settle for fried rice with egg for protein.\u00a0 Of course saki&#8217; and chardonnay accompanied dinner.<\/p>\n<p>We got home about 9:00 PM and watched a Columbo before crashing &#8220;early&#8221;&#8230; 11:00 PM.\u00a0 We were both tired as it had been a full day of being on the go!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bright and early we headed to Temecula and today we will meet up with Robin and Bob!
