Omakase is a Japanese dining experience where guests leave themselves in the hands of a chef to receive a meal which is seasonal, elegant, artistic, and uses the finest ingredients available. The phrase "omakase" means "I'll leave it up to you" or "I'll trust the chef" in Japanese. It is often used when ordering food in restaurants. In the context of sushi, "omakase" usually refers to an extended sushi dinner where the chef prepares one piece of fish at a time and guesses what else the guest might enjoy. Omakase is typically more expensive due to the many dishes provided and the high quality of ingredients used. Guests can expect to be face-to-face with the chef during their meal, who will gauge their reactions and help guide them toward the best possible experience.
