Merna hibachi FAQ
Is a city backyard big enough?
If a grill and a picnic table fit, it's big enough. Level ground or concrete about ten by ten is the whole requirement.
When does the outdoor season run?
Usually April through October. Later than that, plan on a tent and dress warm.
What do you need from me?
A flat outdoor spot, tables, chairs, plates and forks. The chef handles the cooking end completely.
How do I pay?
Zelle for the $50 deposit, due 72 hours before the party, and it comes off the bill. Cash or Zelle for the rest on the day. No cards.
How long does the whole thing take?
Figure an hour and a half on the grill. Setup happens before you eat, and the chef wipes down the cooking spot before leaving.
What's the going rate in Merna?
Two proteins: $55 a grown-up, $30 a kid under 12. Three proteins: $65 and $40. Food has to hit $500.
