For a limited time this holiday season, Benihana is offering restaurant guests the perfect holiday gift and opportunity to become a Benihana chef for the day and learn the art of teppanyaki cooking on the hibachi grill. Benihana's "Be The Chef" package will give a friend or family member the chance to experience Benihana firsthand with a private lesson in teppanyaki cooking from a master Benihana chef and then cook a 5-course meal for family and friends.
The "Be The Chef" package includes a one-on-one training session with a Benihana chef to learn how to cook teppanyaki style on the hibachi grill; a full Benihana teppanyaki performance by the gift recipient to entertain friends and family; a masterpiece meal created to enjoy with three additional guests; an official Certificate of Completion certifying the gift recipient as a Teppanyaki Master; and a complimentary souvenir photo of the performance that can be downloaded and shared with additional friends and family.
Included in the package is Benihana's "Splash ‘n Meadow" dinner which features hibachi steak and shrimp, vegetable fried rice, onion soup, salad, hibachi vegetables, homemade dipping sauces, Haagen-Dazs ice cream and Japanese hot green tea. On sale at participating locations through the holidays, the "Be The Chef" package for four people is USD140. Additional guests can be added for only USD35 per person, and Benihana is offering a special price of USD250 for eight guests.
Also for the holidays, Benihana offers gift cards that allow family and friends to get together in the perfect atmosphere for a gathering or special event. For every USD50 spent on Benihana gift cards, purchasers will receive an additional USD10 promotional card to be used January 2, 2011 through March 31, 2011. In addition, restaurant guests can celebrate the holidays at Benihana, as all restaurant locations are open on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
