Not a list. A record. 300 places across Japan, each with a field note on why it earned its spot — 45 worth flying for, organized by craving, the rest mapped by neighborhood. Compiled and re-verified over fifteen years of eating in Japan: closures cut, relocations tracked, Michelin claims checked.

Everything, one price:

一 The guide (PDF) — 28 pages, designed to be read on a phone at the counter or printed for the plane. 370 tappable Google Maps links.

二 The master spreadsheet — all 300 places, sortable by city, neighborhood, and category, with a map link on every row.

三 The interactive map — every pin in the guide on one private map of Japan, delivered with your bundle: street-level detail in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka. Tap for the field note, tap again for directions.

四 Your own map — a ready-to-import file that drops the entire Short List into your personal Google Maps in three clicks, so the pins live on your phone while you're standing in Ebisu, hungry, at 9pm.

五 Free updates — places close and move in Japan; the record is re-verified and buyers get every revision. Latest revision: August 2026 — nineteen new counters added.
