Default Japanese Leaf

I came across a very special type of leaf used in fine dinning resaurant for cold food presentation as well as hot food. I attach the photo file and would appreciate anyone could tell me the name of this nice green leaf? Sorry I can't post attachment.

You mentioned Japanese leaf, but there was no picture attached so I'm going to make the first guess as perhaps a Shiso leaf?
Here's a picture.

Well it was a quick try. As far as posting pics, if you're posting from a website (and you may want to double check the rules here for doing so) I right click the picture and copy/paste the properties into the pop up link at the top of this window for images.

For other pictures like personal ones there needs to be a host for the pictures so there is a path to link up. Others here can give you better technical info.
