Dangerously Fun Dinner Party!!!...

Kevin was definitly in his element the weekend of his birthday while hosting a Teppanyaki style dinner party!  He prepared awesome fried rice, yummy fresh veggies including zuchinni, mushrooms & onions, Steak, Terriyaki Chicken, Lobster, Shrimp and Scallops for our group of 12 people without a hitch!  I love his love of cooking and entertaining.  We make a great team and have fun with it :)  I was so glad he was able to have his new grill just in time for this get together.  It was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO yummy Babe!

Flaming Onion...

Our tables!

The prep table...

We made paper place mats that also served as place cards, with the guests Japanese names at the top and their english names down the left side...  it was a fun touch ...

kevin strung all of the lights and lanterns ahead of time and then due to forcasted rain he improvised by building a ginormous plastic tent overhead to keep the party outside where we wanted it:)

Getting started...

He is very focused when cooking...

Happy friends... love getting together!

The veggies are my FAVORITE!

preparing the onion to be torched!
