Teriyaki

Many people enjoy having Teriyaki in daily basis. It fascinates people with its’ own tasteful and sweet sauce. I consider Teriyaki as the best food that everyone enjoys eating. Back to history, Teriyaki is first made by Japanese. In Japanese, the word Teri-yaki means luster (Teri), and grill or broil (yaki) because in the process of making Teriyaki, the ingredients are either broiled or grilled after brushing the chicken or beef with the special sauce. These sauces can be made easily with soysauce, mirin, and sugar. But often people get confused Teriyaki sauce with Bulgogi sauce (Korean BBQ) because they nearly taste the same since they both have soysauce for the recipe. With its’ great flavor, Teriyaki spread throughout the world quickly. We can find Teriyaki in some Mexican or Western foods. And we have many restaurants such as Yoshinoya, Maki-yaki, etc. in America that serve Teriyaki bowls (most of the time, they serve the bowl with Teriyaki rather than the Teriyaki alone).

One thing that Teriyaki fascinates people is the way how Teriyaki bowl guarantees an outstanding performance to the customers. The place I visited last week with my friend was called, “Maki-Yaki.” They served nearly every kind of the Teriyaki bowls that I couldn’t have imagined. One of these Teriyaki bowl (8.95 dollars), contained teriyaki (you can either choose chicken or beef), rice bowl, California rolls, shrimp tempuras, salad bowl, and Miso soup. Imagine having 6 different foods at once and appreciating the taste of them. It is better than the heaven. For fact, those foods made me and also my friend, who had never tried Teriyaki before, to enjoy and to get in love with Teriyaki. I think it is power of Teriyaki that anyone who tries a bite of Teriyaki bowl, get to be a fan of it.

In addition, many of the Teriyaki restaurants offer great price on their food. Like I said previously, they offered me 8.95 dollars for Teriyaki bowl, including whole bunch of other dishes. Also many of those restaurants give free delivery if you order from close distances and purchase more than 25 dollars. All these things favor customers to easily get addicted by Teriyaki. But it is not just their marketing skills; it is the taste of Teriyaki that makes me to order another bowl.
