A Culinary Tribute to Umami
Tucked away in the charming neighborhood of Azabujuban, “O'denbar Umami” is the perfect destination for those eager to explore the rich and refined flavors of authentic Japanese cuisine. At “O'denbar Umami”, umami is meticulously crafted through their signature oden and dashi (broth). Their dashi is made with premium natural kombu (kelp) from Hokkaido and the finest katsuobushi (bonito flakes), resulting in a delicate yet flavorful broth that forms the foundation of all their authentic umami dishes.
What’s in Their Umami Oden?
Oden is a beloved Japanese comfort food consisting of a variety of ingredients, such as fish cakes, vegetables, and tofu, slow-simmered in Japanese dashi. “O'denbar Umami” perfects this dish with its umami-rich broth, ensuring that every ingredient is infused with a refined, savory flavor. If it’s your first time trying oden, we highly recommend starting with the daikon (Japanese white radish), which absorbs the umami-rich broth, making it tender and flavorful with every bite. Other must-try items include their delicious fish cakes and soft-boiled eggs.
Beyond oden, the restaurant also serves fresh sashimi, sourced daily from Toyosu Market—Japan’s most renowned seafood hub. Each slice of sashimi tastes fresh and clean, adding to the restaurant’s culinary experience.
The Perfect Japanese Sake to Pair
No Japanese dining experience is complete without the perfect sake pairing. “O'denbar Umami” offers a thoughtfully curated selection of sake, including a unique specialty: Dashi-wari—a combination of Japanese sake and their house-made dashi. This innovative pairing enhances the natural umami of both the food and drink, creating an unforgettable experience.
For those unsure of what to order, the knowledgeable staff is also always ready to recommend the perfect sake pairing.
