New season, plenty of flavours to discover. 🍂
September brings a change of pace. Summer may still be lingering, but the first hints of a new season are here, and our cravings begin to shift with it.
From sushi and poke bowls to noodles, curries and wok-fired favourites, there’s plenty to explore at Umami!
Keep It Fresh with Sushi
Fresh, colourful and full of variety, sushi is always a good place to start.
Keep things simple with Nigiri or Hosomaki, explore familiar options such as the California Roll, or choose one of Umami’s more adventurous signature creations.
The Umami Dragon Roll, for example, brings together tempura prawn, unagi, cucumber and avocado, topped with red fish roe, black sesame and unagi sauce. It’s a combination of fresh, creamy and crispy textures that makes every piece a little experience of its own.
Also, when everyone around the table wants something different, a sushi platter makes sharing even easier.
Fresh Bowls for September Days
For those days when you’re still holding onto summer, Poke Bowls offer freshness, lively colours and plenty of flavour in one bowl.
Alongside poke, Umami’s Fresh Salads offer another way to keep things light and vibrant. With crisp vegetables, fresh ingredients and Asian-inspired dressings, they’re an easy choice for warmer September afternoons.
When Noodle Season Starts Calling
Then there are the days when something warm and comforting sounds exactly right.
Give a go to the noodles. 🍜
From Yakisoba and Yaki Noodles to Pad Thai, Umami’s noodle selection brings together vegetables, proteins and flavour-packed sauces in dishes made for serious twirling.
Turn Up the Heat with the Wok
September is also a great excuse to rediscover the wok side of the menu.
High heat, fresh ingredients and bold sauces create dishes filled with aroma, taste and texture. Go sweet and tangy with Sweet & Sour, enjoy the richness of Peanut Den Miso, or add some crunch with Crispy Chicken with Cashew Nuts.
And for those who like their flavours with a little more personality, Sticky Korean Barbeque brings chilli flakes, vegetables and a rich Korean barbecue sauce into the mix.
A Little Curry Comfort
Nothing says comfort quite like a fragrant curry.
Umami’s curry selection adds another layer to your September choices, from creamy coconut-based dishes to aromatic Thai flavours.
A Yellow Coconut Curry brings creamy, fragrant flavours to the table, while Thai Green Curry combines coconut cream with garlic, ginger, lemongrass, coriander, vegetables and aromatic green curry.
Pair it with rice and you’ve got a dish that feels comforting, fragrant and full of flavour — perfect as September evenings gradually begin to change.
One Menu, Two Seasons
That’s what makes September dining at Umami interesting.
You can still enjoy the fresh flavours of sunny-day sushi, sashimi, salads, and colourful poke bowls while gradually welcoming the comforting side of the menu with noodles, wok dishes, and curries.
Some days call for fresh. Some call for comfort. And some call for a little bit of both!
New season, with plenty of Umami flavours waiting to be discovered. 🍂🥢
