Yappari Steak, a steakhouse from Okinawa, Japan, has officially opened in VivoCity.

This new restaurant marks the brand's debut in Singapore.

Yappari Steak also has more than 100 outlets in Japan, four in Australia and one in Nepal.

Meat served on lava hotplates

According to Yappari Steak, its Black Angus Beef is wet-aged, meaning it's vacuum-sealed in marinade, and made from Misuji cuts.

Misuji cuts are rare, with a 0.8 per cent yield produced per head of cattle.

The steak is served on sizzling lava stone plates sourced from Mount Fuji, with porous surfaces that distribute heat efficiently.

Customers can choose the doneness of the steak according to their liking.

Here's a look at the hotplate:
