Today we’d like to introduce you to Marcus Frazier
Marcus, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
Meet Marcus, a devoted family man who started his own family and is now a proud father of six. For their birthdays, the children often requested a hibachi dinner at Benihana, making it a cherished family tradition. Inspired by their love for this dining experience, Marcus decided to take it a step further. He bought a hibachi grill, donned the tall hat, and taught himself the art of Japanese grilling.
Six years ago, fueled by his passion, Marcus launched Hibachi Pirates, specializing in at-home hibachi experiences for private events. His unique approach brings the excitement of hibachi dining right to the comfort of his clients’ homes.
Recently, Marcus and his family made the move to Atlanta, where he has quickly become a regular chef at Chow à la Carte, while also continuing to offer private events. He’s thrilled to return to his Cajun roots for an upcoming Chow dinner, blending his love for hibachi with the rich flavors of his heritage.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to my family for standing behind my dream of becoming a Hibachi chef. Your unwavering support has been the fuel that ignites my passion every day. A special shout-out to my Aunt and Uncle, who stepped in as my Mom and Dad—your love and guidance mean the world to me.
Though my pops has passed, his influence still guides me, shaping me into the business-savvy individual I am today. I am forever grateful for the lessons he taught me and the memories we shared.
Also, a heartfelt shout-out to my co-founder, Warren Jones. Although he is no longer with us, I know both he and my pops are proud of the growth and success of Hibachi Pirates. Together, we’ve built something special, and I carry their legacy with me every step of the way.
Thank you all for believing in me and for being my rock. Here’s to continuing this journey and making you all proud! 🙏❤️
