Teppanyaki

0ph0rce0

Just wondering if anyone has any recent feedback on any of the Teppanyaki places around dublin.

Theres a thread or 2 but all pretty old.

And whats the story with numbers? I know its better as a group but can 2 people just walk in and join a table, wouldnt bother me at all really, Just dont want to walk in and be told you need 10 people

Cheers for any info.

Mitsuba on Parnell Street has a teppanyaki table and it has good food. I lived in Japan for two years and Mitsuba is the closest thing to real Japanese food.

You have to book the table, but I think you only need two people.

Dont be at yourself

I've only had the dinner menu, but I have to say I didn't think that Mitsuba was very authentic. A lot of Chinese ingredients and flavours that I wouldn't associate with Japanese food.

Ten Thousand on Liffey St would be much more authentic, in my experience. Doesn't do Teppanyaki, though

Interesting that you feel that way. Have you lived in Japan before? Which prefecture?

Ten Thousand is run by Chinese and I found that they were much less authentic!

Yeah, I've lived, studied and worked in Japan (Kyoto and Okayama) for more than 2 years.

I know Ten Thousand is run by Chinese, but the food seems much more authentic. I've been to Mitsuba a few times for dinner and was massively disappointed. Dishes served up on a massive plate of stir-fried beansprouts, carrots etc. Not quite washoku!

Whatever I ordered from Mitsuba, that wasn't the case thankfully. Perhaps I'll give Ten Thousand another go! Only been there twice.

I lived in Nara and Osaka, so we'd probably have a similar experience with Japanese food.
