Yes, we do. Yagen nankotsu and torikawa, correct? Which would you like, salt or sauce?
Gesture & etiquette
Look at the menu, then look up at the staff. A slight head tilt can convey a question.
Be specific with the Japanese names of parts. If they say no, accept it gracefully. Don't expect all izakayas to have every niche part.
