It’s still the Hamachi Grill (644 Portland Street, 444-4688) but now it has a few brand new attractions. “In the summer we took an adjacent space, and expanded our restaurant with the addition of four Teppanyaki tables,” explains Hamachi master Boris Mirtchev. For those who don’t know, Teppanyaki is a stryle of Japanese cuisine where the food is cooked in an iron griddle right in front of the diners, where the skill of the chefs can be appreciated. The new extension opened last weekend so is available to be enjoyed right this minute. Don’t trample folks to get in the door, OK? There’s plenty for everyone.
