Enjoying teppanyaki usually means heading out to a local restaurant that specializes in it, but this is something the SteakStones Ishiyaki Set is designed to change. Created by Nick Metcalf, the dining set works by having the accompanying stone placed in the oven on the broil setting for about half an hour in order to heat it up to the perfect temperature for [searing meat or fish](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lime-house-tataki-menu). The [dry-sear technique](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chargrilled-sirloin-steak) that the set implements will provide a health way to enjoy premium cuts of meat or fish, while sealing in all the flavor.

The SteakStones Ishiyaki Set also provides space for sauces and additional dining ingredients to be placed to create [premium Japanese-style meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cooking-dipping-sauce) without ever having to leave the house.
