Your search for the perfect party has finally arrived. Connecticut now has a mobile Hibachi caterer who is ready to roll into your house and create the ultimate custom Hibachi party…just for you.

If you’re unfamiliar with the concept of “Hibachi “it’s a type of cuisine that was first introduced to Japan, a meal typically including meat, vegetables and seafood, cooked over very hot metal plates. The word “hibachi” comes from Japanese meaning "fire bowl."

Just like your favorite local Hibachi spot, Mr Hibachi pulls out all the stops for a hands on, interactive culinary experience. Guests (including kids) can take over the grill, score a cooking lesson, and learn some serious spatula skills. And then, of course, there is the time honored game of chefs throwing food into guest's mouths, and a REALLY fun twist, the Mr Hibachi SAKE GUN!! (a crowd favorite) Diners can “shoot” Sake at each other….or just enjoy some for themselves. Good times all around.

Long View Ciderhouse is excited to announce the opening of their new hard cider bottle shop at the Shuttle Meadow location of Rogers Orchards. Located at 336 Long Bottom Rd in Southington, Connecticut, the bottle shop offers four unique hard ciders made from apples grown on the farm, a variety of styles and flavors and more releases planned for this summer.

Long View Ciderhouse is a family-owned and operated business and a “branch” of Rogers Orchards, an 8 generation family farm dating back to 1809. Jeff Rogers, the head cider maker, works directly with his brother and brother-in-law Peter Rogers and Greg Parzych, co-presidents of the farm. Passionate about creating high-quality, delicious hard cider, Long View Ciderhouse combines traditional cider-making techniques with modern methods to create ciders that appeal to a variety of tastes. Peter and Greg took over the farm from John Rogers in 2006 and were joined by Jeff in 2021.
