Fasting season arrives with its own rhythm – quieter, calmer, and often more intentional. But while meals may become lighter, they shouldn’t lose their creativity! At Umami, we believe that fasting isn’t about limitation. It’s about discovering flavours that feel both comforting and energising.
So, to make the season tastier, we’ve put together a selection of our best fasting-friendly picks. Dishes that keep things fresh, vibrant, and fully aligned with fasting traditions. Whether you’re looking for something warm and satisfying or something crisp and refreshing, there’s a bowl, roll, or plate for you.
Start with something refreshing like Edamame, or Wakame, Asian, or Kimchi Salad, and pair it with Vegetable or Prawn Gyozas. Take the extra step and further pair these with a crunchy option like Prawn Crackers, Spring Rolls, Tempura Prawns, or Crispy Calamari. These are the perfect starter dishes to ease into your meal.
If you love sushi, good news – you can still enjoy it during fasting! Try our Cucumber or Avocado Hosomaki, or the colourful Green Roll with cucumber, avocado, mango, and wakame. If you include seafood in your fast, you can also enjoy our Tempura Prawn Hosomaki, California Roll, experience our Nigiri selections or try out the Umami Signature Rolls like the Jumbo Prawn Roll, Dragon Roll or Unagi Roll.
Looking for something deliciously satisfying? Our bowls and noodles are great choices. The Green Poke is full of veggies, tofu, and freshness. If you prefer something warm, go for the Vegetable Noodles or the popular Yaki Noodles with prawns, mussels, calamari, mushrooms, cabbage, and oyster sauce. Fans of Thai flavours will love the Prawn or Edamame & Zucchini Pad Thai – just ask for these without egg.
Rice lovers also have great options: Special Fried Rice plain or with prawns, veggies and pineapple. If you want something cosy and creamy, the Thai Green Vegetable Curry is one of the most favourite selections.
And yes – dessert is still on the menu! Treat yourself to a Tropical Mochi Ice Cream for a light and refreshing sweet finish.
Fasting can be simple, tasty, and enjoyable with the right dishes. At Umami, you don’t need to compromise – just ask for vegan sauces where needed, and enjoy a fasting season full of flavour.
