Japanese cuisine: decide what to order before the counter

Washoku frames dashi, rice and seasonal restraint from sushi counters to home miso. Use the Decide what to order tool on this lookup: pick room and heat, then take the plate line for this cuisine file. Atlas spice is a teaching mark (often low chili, wasabi or sansho beside the dish) — not a live menu price or reservation. Zero live prices on this teaching page.

Atlas spice is not a chili contest

Japanese pages often sit low on chili heat; wasabi or sansho sits beside the plate. Asking milder or hotter changes the spoken line, not the pantry identity.

Toyosu / old Tsukiji-style literacy still teaches queue, point, share, pay. The street chapter lists on-file steps — not a single shop SOP.
