Kanpai of Tokyo has a brand-new menu. OK, two new menus. Or, if you want to count the lunch and dinner menus separately, there are three new menus.
“We had to make different menus because all the new things wouldn’t fit on just one,” laughed assistant manager Francisa Luna.
I suppose numbers aren’t important. What is important is the huge variety of hibachi, sushi, combos and cocktails that are now offered at Kanpai. “This is the first overhaul of our menu in a very long time,” said manager Tommy Sines.
The new hibachi lunch or dinner menu now includes options like rib-eye cooked to order and served with freshly sautéed and sauced onions, zucchini and mushrooms and a heaping scoop of fragrant fried rice. If you like, you can add chicken, a variety of steak cuts, scallops, shrimp or tofu.
“The old menu just had combos like ‘seafood platter,’ but on the new one you can choose anything,” general manager William Miranda said. The new menu lets you be more creative. For instance, you can create your own hibachi meal: shrimp and chicken; yakiniku and rib-eye; scallops and tofu; the list goes on.
