Local tips
Buying beef in Japan
Grading
The letter is yield, the number is quality. A5 BMS 10–12 is the richest beef you can buy.
Brands
Kobe, Matsusaka and Omi are among the best-known regional wagyu brands, each with its own rules.
Portions
Highly marbled wagyu is rich, so 100–150 g per person is normal.
