What to order

  • Izakaya — Small plates with drinks. Grilled fish, karaage, agedashi tofu, pickles. The most sociable Japanese format and the best for a group.
  • Yakitori — Charcoal-grilled chicken, skewer by skewer, every part of the bird. A good yakitori-ya is a serious thing.
  • Tonkatsu — Panko-crusted pork cutlet, with shredded cabbage and rice. Simple and exacting.
  • Soba and udon — Buckwheat and wheat noodles. Handmade soba is a craft food and worth seeking out specifically.

How to spot a good one

  • Specialisation — Japanese restaurant culture is built around doing one thing. A shop that sells only tonkatsu, or only soba, or only yakitori is the norm in Japan and a strong signal abroad. A menu offering sushi, ramen, teriyaki and tempura is an export format.
  • Rice cooked properly — Underrated and central. Good short-grain rice, cooked and held correctly, is the foundation of most of the cuisine.
  • Dashi that tastes of something — The stock underlying an enormous share of Japanese cooking. Made with real katsuobushi and kombu it has a distinct smoky depth; made from granules it is flat and salty.
