The story of Benihana had its roots in Japan when Yunosuke Aoki, a samurai descendant and a popular Japanese entertainer together with his wife Katsu, opened a small coffee shop in Tokyo. A red safflower found in the neighbourhood streets gave the Aoki’s the inspiration for the restaurant’s name; ‘Benihana – or ‘red flower’ in Japanese.
The family’s four sons grew up with the coffee shop, which later became a full-service restaurant. Each of them understood the restaurant business from the ground up – the importance of absolute cleanliness in the kitchen, using the freshest ingredients and the very best cooking tools money could buy.
The eldest son, Hiroaki also grasped the important lesson of offering guests something out of the ordinary and he could not help but inherit his father’s appreciation for the ‘theatrical.’ There was something magical about his combination and the thought stayed with him as he completed college in Japan.
Hiroaki later earned a place on the Japanese Olympic wrestling team which brought him to America. By the time Hiroaki arrived in the US in 1960, he had already begun to form the idea that this country might be ready for a marriage of a different kind of food – presented with an entertaining flair.
Adopting a name which would be easier for Westerners to pronounce, Hiroaki ‘Rocky’ Aoki as he now called himself, set off to have his dream become reality. He worked seven days a week selling ice cream in New York City and studied restaurant management at night. Through saving and borrowing, Rocky scraped together enough money to finance his first four-table restaurant on New York’s West 56th Street.
As they worked within the authentic Japanese farmhouse interior, the Benihana dining concept gradually came into focus. Food would be prepared right at the table with dazzling effects by highly trained chefs.
