OK don’t laugh. Until the day these photos were taken, I had never been to Benihana. If you don’t live near a Benihana, and are wondering what I am talking about, it is an American chain restaurant inspired by Japanese Hibachi. They cook at your table, and you can watch your meal being prepared. The chefs are fun, friendly, and put on a mini show with knife skills and a mini fire at the end. It’s a fun evening!

Our fall weather has been warm this year, so I wore my new jeans and this short sleeve sweater. Since the cooking was done at the table, I definitely retained the scent of my meal for several hours after dinner. haha Thankfully, everything I wore was machine washable.

It seems to be a restaurant people go to for a special occasion. There were a lot of people walking in with gifts, and we heard the birthday song at least three time. It’s a very festive place!

So, if you live near a Benihana, I recommend checking it out if you haven’t already. It’s fun to watch them cook in front of you! Be sure to make a reservation, the Cupertino location had a really, long, long, loooooooooong line. Thankfully I had made reservations!

Thanks for stopping by!
