The Sizzling Plate Revolution
Pepper Lunch was founded in 1994 by Kunio Ichinose who patented an electromagnetic induction iron plate system heating to 260°C. This miniaturised teppanyaki into individual servings — the customer becomes the chef. The concept democratised Japanese teppanyaki from expensive dining into accessible fast food, adding an interactive element that traditional restaurants cannot replicate.
Now 500+ outlets in 15 countries. In Singapore, all 21 outlets halal certified — a strategic move for the Southeast Asian market. The Bedok Mall full outlet offers the complete Pepper Lunch experience with premium options unavailable at Express format food court locations.
Editor's Note
Pepper Lunch at Bedok Mall is the best version of Pepper Lunch — a full standalone outlet with premium steak options not available at Express format. The Beef Pepper Rice (S$8.90) is the essential order: sizzling beef, melting butter, sweet corn, crispy okoge. For Muslim families in Bedok, it is the most exciting halal Japanese option — interactive, fun, and genuinely tasty. The Premium Beef Steak (S$14.90+) is worth trying for special occasions. Add cheese (+S$1.50) for guilty pleasure. The only downside: no reservations, so peak times mean short waits.
