Our chef introduced himself as Jackie Chan, and he was hilarious! Watching him slice and dice the vegetables was like watching a ninja in action. There was even fire—several times! I could hardly keep up with him. After the entertaining show, we enjoyed a delicious meal. Just when I thought the fun was over, the entire restaurant surprised me by singing a birthday song! There I was, the center of attention! I even received a complimentary tempura ice cream along with the birthday serenade! It was truly awesome!! This was the best birthday ever!!
