本单元的一段对话
The night before the dinner. After work, Edward squeezes onto a stool at Joe's six-seat bar in Golden Gai and asks for advice.
Edward: ジョー、明日の夜、ある人と食事をするんです。恵比寿で、いい店を知りませんか？Joe, tomorrow night I'm having dinner with someone. Do you know a good place in Ebisu?
Joe: 「ある人」ね……デートだろ。静かな店を予約しな。窓際の席でな。"Someone", huh… It's a date. Book a quiet place. And get a window seat.
Edward: なるほど。ほかには？I see. Anything else?
Joe: 食事の間は、携帯の電源を切っとけ。During dinner, switch your phone off.
Edward: 電源を？でも、仕事の電話が……Off? But work calls…
Joe: 一晩だけだよ。あんたなら、できる。Just one night. You can do it.
Joe: それと、店員を呼ぶ時は「すみません」。指を鳴らすなよ。And when you call the waiter, say "sumimasen". Don't snap your fingers.
Edward: しませんよ、そんなこと。I'd never do that.
文化笔记
The first plates arrive. Edward reaches for his chopsticks, then notices Malèna putting her palms together first. What do people usually do right before eating in Japan?
Say "itadakimasu", often with the palms together.
Across Japan, people say いただきます ("I humbly receive") before eating: at home, in restaurants, even alone, and many put their palms together as they say it. It thanks everyone behind the meal: the cook, the farmers, the food itself, and whoever is paying. Its partner after the meal is ごちそうさまでした.
像本地人一样说： いただきます。 — Let's eat. (lit. I humbly receive)
The service was perfect. On the way out, Edward tucks a thousand-yen note under his glass for the waiter. What usually happens to a tip left on the table in Japan?
A waiter may run after you to return it: tipping isn't customary.
In Japan, tipping isn't part of restaurant culture. Good service is simply expected, and some upscale restaurants and hotels add a service charge to the bill instead. Money left on the table is often treated as forgotten and brought back to you. Thank the staff in words: ごちそうさまでした on your way out is the Japanese tip.
像本地人一样说： ごちそうさまでした。おいしかったです。 — Thank you for the meal. It was delicious.
The bill arrives in a little black folder. Edward reaches for it, and Malèna reaches for her purse. How is the bill usually handled on a date in Japan?
It varies: one may treat, but splitting it is common and no rejection.
Across Japan, 割り勘 (splitting the bill) is normal among friends and colleagues, and plenty of couples split too, sometimes with one person paying a little more. On early dates the one who invited often pays, but it varies a lot with age and the couple. If your date offers 割り勘, take it as fairness, not a rejection; if you're treated, offer to return the favour next time.
像本地人一样说： 今日は割り勘にしませんか？ — Shall we split it today?
Edward lifts a piece of wagyu with his chopsticks and holds it out for Malèna to take with hers. She stops him with a small shake of the head. Why does Malèna stop him?
Passing food from chopsticks to chopsticks echoes a funeral rite.
In Japan, passing food from one pair of chopsticks to another is taboo: it echoes the funeral rite in which family members pass the bones of the cremated from chopsticks to chopsticks. Sharing is fine; put the food on the other person's plate instead. Chopsticks stuck upright in a bowl of rice are avoided for a similar reason: they recall offerings to the dead.
像本地人一样说： 箸から箸はだめ。お皿に置いて。 — Not from chopsticks to chopsticks. Put it on my plate.
After dinner, near Ebisu station, Malèna insists on a late bowl of ramen at a tiny counter. Edward eats his noodles in total silence. Is slurping noodles rude in Japan?
No: slurping noodles is normal, and many say it brings out the flavour.
Across Japan, slurping ramen, soba and udon is perfectly normal: it cools hot noodles on the way in, and many people say it brings out the aroma. Noodles are the exception, though: chewing other food loudly is as rude in Japan as anywhere.
像本地人一样说： ラーメンは、すすって食べるのがおいしいんだよ。 — Ramen tastes best when you slurp it.
