Birthday Bash at Benihana's

For our GNO, Carole and I had dinner at Benihana's. Carole had looked forward to this ALL DAY! The food is good and pretty healthy but best of all, we had signed up for the birthday club and since we both have December birthdays, we each had received a $30 dinner gift card! Carole closely watched the chef with his knife skills and patter and jokes to help remember her grilling lessons a year ago. He tossed the shrimp tail into his tall red hat and made the onion ring choo choo train. It was a great meal- we happened to pick the same thing- hibachi steak and chicken with mushrooms and onions and special ice cream with a birthday candle. The best part- my $30 meal only cost $5 for the tip!!!
