Attention all foodies! Benihana — the OG theatrical dining experience — opens the doors to its incredible new London flagship this month, and to celebrate, they're giving away one heck of a prize.
One lucky Londonist reader will win a luxurious meal complete with complimentary champagne in one of Benihana Covent Garden's exclusive private dining rooms, and they can bring not one, not two, but SEVEN of their nearest and dearest along for the experience!
Here, our lucky winner and their guests will be treated to a never-before-seen Japanese-inspired tasting menu, feat. wagyu beef, lobster, black cod, scallops and more — all prepared at the table on a teppan grill by their own private chef.
As all full-blown Benifanatics will know, Benihana's highly-skilled chefs are integral to the experience — the stars of "the world's greatest culinary spectacle". And they don't just give those red hats to anyone, you know: whether you win the prize or just decide to dine at Benihana off of your own dime, you can expect a wealth of culinary wizardry as you wait for your food (spoiler: knife juggling is involved).
You'll even have the chance to, ahem, grill your chef-slash-showman on the art of teppanyaki and get your meat, seafood, or veggie dishes cooked according to your tastes.
The Covent Garden restaurant offers an elevated version of the Benihana experience. It's a stylish, 7,717 square-foot space inspired by Japanese living, complete with a feature video installation that tells the Benihana story (and WHAT a story — from hosting the likes of Muhammad Ali and The Beatles in the sixties to cameos in blockbusters like The Wolf Of Wall Street, Benihana is a bonafide global sensation).
Discover the magic for yourself when it launches on Monday 17 October, or try your luck in our tasty competition. You can enter for free* via the form below — but hurry, you've till 23.59pm on Tuesday 25 October to do so.
THIS COMPETITION IS NOW CLOSED.
