Benihana's

I have been wanting to bring the kids to Benihana's for quite some time. The closest one to us is in St. Louis Park, which is a good 45 minutes from our house. With Sam being honored with Student of the Month for April, we decided this would be the place to go. We invited Melanie, Dan and Maddie to join us, which made it even more memorable.
Seth wouldn't take his eyes off of the chef. He didn't want to miss the next move. Sam was impressed with how fast he could flip his tools around.
Our chef made an onion volcano, then an onion train, a beating rice heart and Mickey Mouse.
He liked to mess with Nick by pretending to shake salt into his drink, flipping his drink upside down without spilling a drop, and even tapped the salt shaker on top of his head to provide him with a little extra seasoning. What we all enjoyed the most is when he was cutting the tails off the shrimp and flipped the tail into Seth's hat rather than his own.

It was also funny that all three kids ate their meals with their chop sticks while the adults used forks.
