Step into a deluxe theatre of food for an upmarket teppanyaki experience at Australia’s largest teppan table. It weighs in at a whopping 4 1/2 tonnes, and seats up to 46 people under a rumbling German extractor hood. Thankfully it doesn’t dampen the mouth-watering aroma of sizzling King Prawns ($41.50/4 pieces), expertly peeled on the grill by your personal chef. From Spicy Seafood Salad ($18) to Alaskan Crab ($75/300g) and Western Rock Lobster ($50/half, $85/whole), seafood is well represented, and well handled; even when your chef is manning three types of crustacean at once! If you’re unfamiliar with this style of cooking, choose a set menu to see what the fuss is about. Prices range from $88 to $180, depending upon content. It’s hard to beat the tender Wagyu Roll ($69.50/300g) for flavour; but the Number One Special ($21/2 piece) has the signature Kobe Jones fusion feel and is a flaming good example of blow torching. End with one of the most credible versions of Crepe Suzette ($45/2 people) I’ve tried in Sydney. I credit this to Executive Chef Stephane Jegat, whose impressive resume includes time at Fauchon – the ‘Louis Vuitton’ of French delicatessens – under master pâtissier Pierre Hermé. Needless to say, no eggs or bowls of rice are flung anywhere.
