| Teppan-Yaki, not Daki!! |
If you are happened to be in Japan, mind that the Kanji brings a different connotation, as Teppan-Yaki means ‘the flat pan-stove’-‘anything fried or grilled’. So what Malaysians perceive as a household menu, might be in slightly different meaning to the Samurais.
Well my last encounter with teppan-yaki - and it became my fav outlet - was at the Mid Valley’s upper food court back in years, but my crave reclined since they moved somewhere. But last weekend, I happened to wonder around the trendy up-market Pavilion Mall in my empty stomach. My pancaindera perut (err, no translation for this) brought me to the very end of the food court, and there was a minimalist yet cosy teppan-yaki outlet.
The usual setting appeared simple yet fulfilling. The teppan was long enough to fill 20-30 pax with extra seats, and the well-kimonoed chef looked eager to please his customers. I relaxed and admired. How I love so much the art of potong sayur in orderly manner! A silver/copper paper was put on and I was ready to eat, suddenly a devilish thought slowly sneaked in my mind, “Hmm, what if a rat had a marathon session ON the stove last nite??“ Hmm, as long as it doesn’t happen right in front of my eyes, and as long as the sauce and spices tasted great!! Nyum nyum!
[KL2FT Tips] Better taste? Seek for an outlet that prepares Sawi Putih (Silver-beat mustard or Brassica Rugosa or Pakchoy hehe) instead of Green ones.
