"Self-described “Japanese DIY Teppan” restaurant Pepper Lunch has arrived on the ground floor of Shanghai Plaza. After ordering via a touch-screen device or at the counter, servers bring Pepper Lunch’s “patented electromagnetic plates” heated up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit to each seat so diners can cook the ingredients to their desired temperature. Instructions on how to “sizzle like a pro” are placed on the tables, providing tips for cooking pepper rice, steak curry, and pasta plates, plus encouraging flavor combinations created from the sweet and garlic sauce condiments. The menu includes beef, chicken, eel, shrimp, salmon, and curry options, premium rib eye and New York steak upgrades, salads, teriyaki creations, tofu, vegetable choices, and cream chicken, or kale and spinach pasta selections. Extra toppings can be added to each meal, joining sides of rice, miso soup, sweet potato wedges, onion rings, fries and a seaweed shake salad." - Bradley Martin
