01

Number of courses

Menus of 8–10 courses are lighter; those of 14 or more are long journeys with more produce and more time at the table. Allow two to three hours.

Produce and season

Check whether the restaurant works with seasonal produce and explains where it comes from. A menu that changes with the seasons is usually a good sign.

Allergies and preferences

Mention them when booking. A good restaurant adapts the menu when possible, although some restrictions are difficult in Japanese cooking (soy, fish, gluten).
