'I mean, it's such a beautiful art. I immediately became obsessed,' says owner Dorian Canty.
Hibachi in the United States is synonymous with the chain Benihana, which was founded by Hiroaki Aoki in New York City in 1964. In Japan, hibachi-style cooking is known as teppanyaki, derived from teppan, the metal plate used for cooking, and yaki, which refers to grilled, broiled or pan-fried.
Soon, Canty decided to leave culinary school in pursuit of his newfound obsession. During his time at Benihana, he received training in the classical cooking style of teppanyaki, which is much slower and more technical than the Americanized version typically seen at hibachi restaurants. His primary goal was to open a food truck, but the backyard dinners allowed him to make money for the project."It's a little bit cheaper to get started, and it still brings a fun experience," he explains."It's not your traditional style of catering, but its definitely eye-catching."
