Ordering a drink, conversational Japanese


**Disclaimer** : _This relates to prose, I would never consider being
intentionally rude in real life._

I'm currently writing a short-story, and in it there's a scene in a Japanese
restaurant. It calls for one of the characters (female) to call the waiter
over and request a bottle of Sake (nihonshu?), as per the chef's
recommendation.

My own—slow but ongoing—study of Japanese, is of little help, because text-
books has an awful tendency to mangle the politeness in these matters. From
what I understand of the politeness customs in Japan, a customer would
probably **not** be more polite toward the staff, than the staff toward the
customer.

So, how would one, as a woman, in conversational Japanese, bordering on being
downright rude, order a bottle of the house's recommended rice-wine?

My own best guess would be " _Oi, nihonshu kudasai!_ ", but that doesn't sound
right to me…




As @dainichi has suggested in his comment I think you could use  

> ちょっと。おススメのお酒/日本酒ちょうだい。or  
>  ちょっと。おススメのお酒/日本酒持ってきて。or  
>  ちょっと。おススメのお酒/日本酒もらうわ。  
>

etc. in a Japanese restaurant. If in [居酒屋]{いざかや} you would say  

> [熱燗]{あつかん}つけて。  
>  一本つけて。  
>  [沢の鶴]{さわのつる}、[冷]{ひや}で。  
>

etc., depending on what (type/brand) you want / how (hot/iced/warm/room
temperature) you want it.
