As we browse through Instagrams posted from Yamashiro daily, one thing always pops up--besides the gorgeous view and colorful sushi, of course--and that is our Himalayan Salt Plate.

American Wagyu Steak is seared and served on the Himalayan Salt Plate, which is then quickly cooked to your preference at your table. An interactive and fun culinary experience, this is a great dish to give your dinner something you won't forget!

Never used a Himalayan Salt Block before? Here's what's up: the salt plate is a dense block of translucent pink salt hand-cut from ancient mineral deposits. It is first heated to around 400 degrees, and then cooked at your table. As it cooks, it imparts a small amount of its pure yet complex taste, adding full flavor to the cooked steak. These salt plates can be used to cook any kind of meat or vegetables, and can even be chilled or frozen to display sushi, cold meats, fruit, etc. Himalayan Salt Blocks have continued to gain popularity recently, and we know why! The flavor and the act of cooking your own American Wagyu steak elevates your culinary experience to the next level.
