- Best season to eat each dish, so you can plan your trip around peak flavors
- Local price ranges in Japanese yen, with USD and EUR estimates
- Allergen and dietary information (vegetarian, vegan, halal-friendly options, and hidden ingredients like fish dashi or pork lard)
- "How to eat" guides for dishes with unique customs — like hitsumabushi's three-step ritual or wanko soba's endless refills
- Recommended pairings — the drinks, condiments, and sides that locals order alongside each dish
