Publishing principles

How we keep our information accurate

The publishing principles behind ka-nami.com, covering where facts come from, how they are reviewed, and how to report a mistake.

Where our facts come from

Every price, opening hour, and dish on this website comes from Kanami’s own materials. That means our printed and digital menus, our 2026 catering menu, and our in-house promotions. Each fact lists its sources so you can trace it back.

One source of truth

We keep every fact in one place, as a bundle of plain text files in the Open Knowledge Format. The website, the menu pages, and the data we share with search engines are all built from those same files. Because of that, the menu page and the catering page can’t disagree with each other.

How facts are reviewed

Each fact records who wrote it and who has checked it:

  • Unverified facts were drafted, partly with AI assistance, from our menus and old website. Nobody on the Kanami team has signed them off yet.
  • Human-reviewed facts have been checked by a member of the Kanami family.
  • Draft facts are incomplete. For example, kamayan prices are not published yet.

Menu prices also carry a review date. After that date, we treat a price as stale until someone checks it again.

Prices can change

Prices are subject to change without prior notice. When in doubt, call us at (630) 898-1000 before you order.

Found a mistake?

Email eattogether@ka-nami.com or call us. We fix errors as soon as we can and note every change in the update log.
