'Omakase' is a special way of ordering things in Japan. It comes from the Japanese word meaning "to entrust." In a sushi restaurant, for example, it means you leave it to the chef to decide what to serve – they skillfully select items they think will most appeal to your taste. A recent development is the growth of Omakase services. Omakase is more than simply curating services, it's about building relationships of trust.
