Was ist Teppanyaki?

Teppanyaki was invented in Spain in the 15th and 16th centuries. At that time, because Spain had developed shipping, it often sailed and colonized all over the world.

The reason is that Teppanyaki uses the finest ingredients, such as fresh seafood, including lobster, scallops, abalone, etc. At the same time, the ingredients are not marinated before production, and only two condiments, salt, and pepper, are added during the grilling process to enjoy the original taste of the food. The materials have different levels. Taking beef as an example, there are domestic beef, American beef, and Kobe beef. The price difference is also quite large. Kobe beef costs more than 700 yuan per serving. There are many famous teppanyaki suppliers in China, and there are also many Specialty Teppa
