Chef's choice at Teppanyaki

There’s a rare treat in store for 80 lucky Herald subscribers at Teppanyaki restaurant on February 9 when three top Japanese chefs team up to present an omakase-style degustation dinner exclusively for Herald Benefits members.

In sushi restaurants, omakase (a word that implies “I trust you to choose”) is used as an instruction to the chef by gourmet diners: in effect, they demand that the chef impress them with his skill and produce.  The result should be a delicious degustation meal that pulls out all the stops.

You’d expect nothing less when Merivale’s most inventive chefs - Nobuyuki Ura from sushi e, Akira Urata from Teppanyaki and Atsushi Saito from Sushi Choo – pool their skills to blow the socks off Sydney’s most knowledgeable and demanding diners (that’s you).

Call (02) 9240 3000 NOW to reserve your seats at the special price of just $75 a head (plus wine). There are just 80 places available at this glittering event, so we urge you to book without delay.

Teppanyaki is on level 2 of Merivale’s Ivy complex at 330 George Street; the omakase evening starts at 7pm.
