What chef's counter means
Where it comes from
A chef's counter places diners beside an open kitchen, pass, or sushi bar. The format supports direct interaction, but menu structure and the chef's role vary by venue.
How it works
You sit facing the pass or sushi bar and watch each course prepared and plated to order, often with the chef describing the dish. Wagyu arrives as one plated course within the meal.
What to look for
The counter is the place to ask questions, since the chef can tell you the Wagyu's prefecture, grade, and preparation directly. Use it to learn what sets the cut you are served apart.
