Dictionary?

Is this a Wikipedia article or a dictionary definition?? FlagSteward 02:15, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I write a lot of the Japanese entries on Wiktionary and I can say for sure that this article has way too much encyclopedic content to be in Wiktionary. It belongs here, in the encyclopedia. You make a good point, however, and I think a modest link to Wiktionary would be appropriate. Please link to "お任せ". Thanks haplo (talk) 17:19, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

from 任せる

I believe that this term is from Japanese 任せる (まかせる, makaseru) rather than 任す (まかす, makasu). Jim Breen's dictionary claims so (search for "お任せ") and it follows from Japanese grammar: the honorific construction in question is o + continuative form + shimasu. The continuative form of 任せる is 任せ, so we get お任せします, omakase shimasu, or omakase for short. If it were 任す, it would be お任しします, omakashi shimasu. Thanks haplo (talk) 17:16, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Image

The image isn't right for this article. It's just a picture of a bunch of sushi and has nothing to do with omakase.

An omakase meal consisting of sushi or sashimi typically comes out piece by piece or, if it includes dishes, dish by dish. You don't usuaLly get everything together. Rather, you get one piece at a time, and, after each piece, you can teLl the sushi chef whether or not you are full and wish to stop. He will then charge you only on what you have eaten up to that point. This is how it's conventionally done.74.82.68.144 (talk) 07:23, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

I agree with this comment - what is pictured is a "Mori-awase", literally, a "piled arrangement". I will remove the photo. AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 02:32, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

date format?

Is there an agreed-upon date format for Japan-related articles? —valereee (talk) 19:01, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
