My Love Affair with Japanese Food
Takumi is the place to visit if you are in the mood for a culinary chef-d’oeuvre. This Melbourne Japanese restaurant is the best of its kind. Not only is the food of exceptional quality, but the location and design of the restaurant creates a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere.
Being the only Japanese restaurant in Melbourne that offers Wagyu beef, you can rest assure that it will be exceptional. If you don’t know what Wagyu is, it is a premium grade cut of beef. It is so tender and juicy, it can almost melt in your mouth. . The Wagyu beef burger, grilled and marinated with Sukiyaki sauce is a favorite selection among lunchtime customers. If you do not fancy having burgers, give the Wagyu Yakiniku lunch set a try. The beef is served raw and is cooked on a smokeless grill. Accompanied by salad and a complimentary glass of beer or wine. Not only does this taste flavorful, but being able to see it prepared adds an added touch of magic.
This Japanese restaurant may specialize in Wagyu beef, but that is not the only Japanese delicacy it has to offer. A bento box is also a fun way to enjoy your lunch. The restaurant offers a few options on the main entree for the bento box. A common Japanese restaurant menu item is Gyoza. These pan fried dumplings are super good and addictive. You cannot stop at one. If you like something different, order yourself the Unagi Bento Box. Unagi is smoked grilled eel and is a very popular and delicious Japanese restaurant dish.
The decor of the restaurant offers a very zen-like feeling. You will feel right at home when dining here. The sleek and comfortable high back chairs and subtle ornaments have a calming affect and allows you to feel like you are having a quiet meal at home, even though you are in the presence with other people.
Overall, Takumi is a great Japanese restaurant. From their delicious menu offerings, to the many different choices of Saki, this Melbourne Japanese restaurant is number one in my book.
