Where the chef sets up in New Paltz
Parks and beaches in the New Paltz area are doable with the right permit — we will tell you which ones typically grant one. Backyard hibachi is still the most common New Paltz booking — the chef needs roughly an 8 by 8 foot clear area and works fine on grass, patio, deck, or driveway. Rooftops and terraces work as long as there is open air above the grill; we bring our own propane and a fire-safe base.

You provide the space and the tables; we bring everything that cooks. The chef needs about an 8 by 8 foot clear area, and Hudson Valley backyards, driveways, patios, and decks all work.

Travel to New Paltz is a flat $50 for the first 50 miles with tolls included, then $1 per mile beyond that.

Can I book a hibachi birthday party in New Paltz on a weekend?
Yes, and weekends are what we do most. We operate seven days a week including Saturday, which is our busiest hibachi party slot in New Paltz. Summer and holiday weekends fill first, so book two to three weeks out if your date is fixed.
Is this hibachi or teppanyaki, and what does the chef actually cook?
It is Japanese teppanyaki cooked on a flat-top hibachi grill — the same style as a hibachi restaurant, run in your own space. The chef cooks fried rice, vegetables, and your chosen proteins to order, and performs the knife work, the onion volcano, and the catch-it-in-your-mouth routine while cooking. Gluten-friendly, halal, and vegetarian versions are all available.
