Restaurant Details
Good food, good sake. This simple philosophy is the central tenet that drives the Shunwaseki Uoman series of restaurants, each one thoroughly dedicated to serving its customers the finest food and drink available, be it through kappo- and kaiseki-style course menus or an extensive a la carte selection. From Nagasaki to Tottori, Tokushima to Hokkaido, Uoman has seafood suppliers in all of the nation’s major ports, ensuring it has a direct line to the freshest possible ingredients.
Uoman was first given life in Osaka’s Nishi-Umeda district, and it is this outlet that remains its most popular. A 126-seater restaurant, its banquet hall and private rooms — both modern-style and sunken kotatsu seating — are highly popular choices for special occasions, in both the on and off seasons. It has built its reputation off elaborately-plating the freshest seasonal ingredients, creating meals that are dazzling to the eye and tantalizing to the tongue.
This menu is supplemented by a full complement of some of Japan’s best sake. From sweet, fruity varieties that are easy on the palate, to rarer varieties with sharper, spicier notes, Uoman’s chefs jocularly refer to the sake as the restaurant’s “unsung hero”: the secret ingredient that enhances the freshness of the restaurant’s many dishes.
One of Japan’s three “great wagyu beef” varieties alongside Matsuzaka and Kobe beef, Shiga Prefecture’s Omi beef is widely said to be the oldest brand of wagyu beef. It is this beef that is used in this course menu’s hotpot, using a traditional soy milk broth to augment the naturally creamy texture and concentrated umami of the Omi beef. This hotpot is bookended by several other luxurious traditional Japanese dishes, including a sashimi assortment, tempura spread and sea bream (tai) rice.
