2016 is clearly Aziz Ansari's year.
Why? It's not that Master of None took home the award for Best Comedy at the Critics' Choice Awards or that he received a Golden Globe nomination; It's that he finally got an invitation—and accepted—to dine at Tyrese Gibson's Benihana-style restaurant Gibsihana, located in the Furious 7 star's backyard.
Yes, you read that properly, Gibson has a hibachi-style restaurant in his backyard, and Aziz got to enjoy it with his brother, Aniz Ansari, and The Lonely Island. Aniz first let the Parks & Recreation star of the restaurant's existence "a few years ago," and after relentless attempts on Twitter, Aziz and his brother finally got to go, and the results are magnificent.
Aziz posted two epic videos from his evening at Gibsihana, and in one he caught a piping hot shrimp in his mouth with David Guetta's "Titanium" playing in the background. The other guests' reactions alone make it a night to remember. If that wasn't exciting enough for Aziz and Aniz, then the collective rendition of "Bugatti" by Ace Hood definitely brought it to the next level.
Tyrese unveiled the insane addition to his house in a YouTube video in 2014. "I've done some real heavy, fly s--t in my backyard," he said in the video.
You got that right.
Oh, and if Gibsihana wasn't enough to make you swoon over this epic backyard, he also has a Starbucks, which actually opened Wednesday. Do you think he uses mobile ordering? Another important question: Does Gibsihana's chef use the toy that pretends to pee out oil?
Please advise.
