Fun
at the Mahzu Hibachi
Grill
Staff members and individuals served by
Bancroft's Plainsboro Day Treatment Services
recently enjoyed a unique lunch at the Mahzu
Hibachi Grill in East Windsor. One of many
community activities planned by the program, the
outing provided the opportunity for socialization
in a fun environment. Lunch-goers were treated to
some fancy tricks by the chef at their table -
balancing an egg on a spatula, tossing food into
diners' mouths; it was anything but a boring
lunch!
