Qiuyan Chen and her husband Mou Li aren’t new to the Asian food business, but their latest restaurant, Hibachi House, is something new for the Lansing area.
“We decided to add a totally new thing to the Lansing area,” says Chen. “We cook the food right on the hibachi grill. It’s hot and fresh.”
It’s also fast. The 3,000 square foot,
Delta Township restaurant seats sit-down diners inside, but also includes a drive-thru window for diners on the go.
“A lot people who work don’t have a lot of time,” Chen says. “We can provide fast food that is a real meal during their lunch time.”
Chen adds that the Hibachi House food is also healthy, using no MSG, little oil and low-sugar fried rice.
Hibachi House opened at 4021 W. Saginaw on October 15. The restaurant currently employs four workers. Chen hopes to expand the concept into additional Lansing-area locations in the future.
