Food Is Art

According to writer, Albert Camus, “Great works are often born on a street corner or in a restaurants revolving door.” A good restaurant should contain a luminous environment, delicious food, and have a friendly staff. Benihanas excels in all of these categories, which is what makes it such a great restaurant. Now let me tell you a few reasons why this restaurant is so good. Benihanas has a beautiful environment from the exterior to the interior. When you first walk up you notice that the exterior always is well picked up and the bushes are always trimmed and the paint looks always new. There is a waiter waiting to open the doors for your entrance and direct you to the bar while you wait, that is if you need to be waited. The inside always has wiped down tables, fresh plates, and silverware that are neatly folded in a napkin. There is beautiful Japanese art like Samurai Soldiers,

Buddha’s and cherry blossom plants that fill the walls. The restaurant makes you feel like you are relaxed, comfortable, and at peace.
In addition to their great art and good environment, they have amazing food. The most interesting fact about Benihanas is that they cook on an amazing hibachi grill. They serve fried rice, filet minion, shrimp, scallops, and calamari all cooked to your taste. Dinner comes with a salad and onion soup as a side dish or sushi rolls if you choose to order them. The chefs, while cooking, perform countless tricks. One is known as the “egg roll”, which is when they spin the egg and make it roll down the spatula before they break it and add it to the rice. The other is the onion volcano were they stack the onion layers on top of one another and add oil to the inside and then the heat from the grill causes smoke to rise above the onion shaped volcano. Lastly the heart beat rice, they shape the rice into a heart and put their spatula underneath it and pump it as if the rice has a rapid

    Historical authenticity, exotic surrounding, good ambience, quality food, great staff, entertainment, unique system design and communal dining; these are just some of what Benihana can offer to its customers. The restaurant has combined a unique dining experience where customers are entertained by highly skilled Japanese chefs preparing and cooking their food in front of them. Unlike a common American restaurant where food was prepared in the kitchen and served by the assigned wait staff, Benihana is far from the American tradition. It brings excitement in the table through chefs who are certified and well-trained in perfecting the art and form of hibachi table cooking. Customers were very much enjoy watching their food being prepared while they can interact with the chef and other patrons.…

    The exterior is very chic and you can see the beautiful lighting display from outside from the glass wall and door. At the entrance, is a tiny red carpet with a rope and palm trees. There is also a doorman to greet you. The exterior has an elegant Caribbean restaurant feel to it. It reminds me of the tourist part of Jamaica (such as Montego Bay, Negril, and Ocho Rios) which has a lot of fancy restaurants.…

    The American Dream is known as a life of personal happiness and material comfort as traditionally sought by individuals in the United States. It’s the overall thought that one can self invent themself, being able to construct their own life by starting over and setting the past aside. In today’s society, the American Dream is categorized as either being something that is attainable or unattainable, but the three sources that I have chosen being Jay Gatsby from The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Richard Cory from Richard Cory by Edwin Arlington Robinson, and Walter Mitty from The Secret life of Walter Mitty by James Thurber, all explain how the American Dream is unattainable. Although satisfaction is never permanent…

    Poor working conditions have been present for centuries. Often times little or nothing is done unless a tragedy occurs to persuade the public to rally for worker rights. This was definitely the case in the United States during the Industrial Revolution and even late in the 20th Century. These conditions have for most purposes disappeared in the United States, with the exception of some in the agricultural sector. However, internationally, mainly in poor third world countries, that is far from the truth. Large corporations from the United States have moved a large portion of their factories overseas to circumvent the strict working regulations within the United States. The third world countries such as Vietnam, China, South Korea, and Taiwan provide access to readily abundant cheap labour. These corporations could now…
