Yakumo menu overview in Meguro Tokyo Japan's culinary gem specializing in wonton noodles with customizable broth options
Nestled in the heart of Meguro, Tokyo, Yakumo stands out as a culinary destination for lovers of authentic Japanese ramen, with a signature focus on exquisitely crafted wonton noodles. This Michelin Bib Gourmand acclaimed restaurant offers a refined twist on traditional ramen, emphasizing delicate broths and perfectly balanced ingredients.
starters and appetizers
While Yakumo's menu centers primarily on its renowned ramen dishes, the true magic begins with the expertly crafted wontons that introduce every bowl. These delicate dumplings come in two varieties — succulent pork and fresh shrimp — each wrapped in a silky thin skin that melts in your mouth. Perfectly poised to awaken the palate, these wontons serve as both a starter and a highlight within their signature dishes.
main courses — special wonton noodles
The star of Yakumo’s menu is the Special Wonton Noodles, a masterful creation that combines the best of Japanese ramen traditions with the unique charm of two distinct broth styles. Diners can choose between black dashi broth, white dashi broth, or a mixed broth blend — each offering a nuanced flavor profile that complements the wontons perfectly. The black dashi broth delivers a richer, deeper umami experience, while the white dashi brings a lighter, clearer soup base, celebrated for its clean and delicate taste.
Accompanying the broth and wontons are your choice of thin noodles or flat noodles, each cooked to a perfect chewy texture that holds the broth in every slurp. This customizable approach ensures that every bowl is tailored to your taste, whether you prefer a lighter soup or a more robust flavor profile. The inclusion of both pork and shrimp wontons adds a luxurious depth, with each bite bursting with savory, fresh ingredients.
desserts and drinks
While Yakumo does not serve desserts, its beverage selection includes refreshing options such as beer, perfectly suited to accompany the clean and light flavors of the ramen broth. This thoughtful pairing enhances your dining experience without overpowering the delicate nuances of the dish.
