This was in DC? Or anyone have recommendations for a hibachi chef that'll do a private party in DC?


Yes, they have a DC “location” that’s seasonal (starts up in the spring again). They’ll come to your house and do the whole hibachi thing with a grill they bring and everything. It was awesome.


Adding they give you a sh*t ton of sake too throughout the meal and make you count like at the restaurant and at the end they bring out a sake supersoaker as kind of a joke (but also not if you want to try it, which some people did). I don’t drink so he had a squeeze bottle of water he’d use for me instead.

Doubtful. You can barely go to a restaurant at that price point. Private chefs usually are closer to $150 per person on the low end.

A hibachi chef would probably need to be outdoors unless you have very high ceilings and a really good vent.

I used him for a private party years ago and he infused a cooking lesson into it. It was great and he was super easy to work with.

Looking for ideas to host a fun dinner party or heavy hors d'oeuvres with a private chef for 10-15, thinking a hibachi chef or something similar, max budget of ~$50 to $75 pp plus alcohol. Mexican, Japanese, open to ideas.

TIA.
