What Makes Wakamama Unique
Wakamama is a fine dining destination first and a vegan restaurant second
Wakamama Omakase is Singapore's premium plant-based dining destination and the only restaurant in the country — and one of very few in the world — to serve a fully vegan Japanese omakase.
Chef Joyce's kitchen is built around six distinguishing principles:
-
A seasonal, multi-course tasting menu that rotates with the produce calendar, never repeating in full from one quarter to the next.
-
Zero salt, sugar, and oil as a foundational culinary philosophy — a level of restraint almost unheard of in high-end dining anywhere in Asia.
-
Koji fermentation, 72-hour dashi, and fire technique applied to plant-based ingredients with the same rigour traditionally reserved for fish-based omakase.
-
Studio Ghibli-inspired mocktail pairings, designed course-by-course rather than offered as a generic beverage list.
-
An 18-seat reservation-only dining room in Pasir Panjang, five minutes from Pasir Panjang MRT, 15 minutes from Orchard, and 20 minutes from Marina Bay.
-
The world's first pet omakase — dogs and cats welcomed indoors at the same table, eating the same food, because the kitchen's salt-, sugar-, and oil-free philosophy makes it naturally pet-safe.
A Plant-Based Fine Dining Experience
Most of our customers aren't vegans.
We don't make vegan versions of fish. We make great food that happens to be vegan.

"I brought my husband, a meat and potatoes guy. By the third course, he was asking the chef how they made 'umami' without animal products".
Chef replied
"We made our own dashi, spices from scratch and ferments our own condiments".

Vegan Omakase Restaurant Food That Rivals the Originals
The "Mentaiko" Handroll
served with Shiso Leaf
Ever wondered how we do our signature mentaiko?
Slowly caramelizing the vegetables with koji helps to bring out its natural sweetness and fragrance, plus we add a slight char note to the vegetables for an extra depth.
Same melt in the mouth experience with sweeter and fragrance of homemade koji.
Asia First Ever
Vegan Ferrero Rocher
The world's first artisan vegan Ferrero Rocher. A whole roasted hazelnut, wrapped in amazake ganache, encased in a hand-rolled rice wafer shell, coated in hand-tempered dark chocolate, and finished with finely chopped hazelnuts.
No dairy. No refined sugar.
Built from scratch — the way it should have been made the first time.
Only the best plant based restaurant does desserts correctly.
The "Tuna" Akami
Smoked Carrot cured with Shichimi & kombu
You've heard about vegan omakase tricks.
This is the masterpiece.
Carrot that is cured 48hours using traditional Kombujime technique with our homemade shichimi spice.
The result? Soft, fragrant and creamy when it touched your mouth.
House Fermented Koji
Koji is the quiet workhorse of our kitchen. We start each batch by hand, inoculating the grains and carefully monitoring them as they transform over the next 48 hours.
From this single fermentation, we create a pantry of flavors—the gentle sweetness of our housemade amazake and the deep, savory punch of our shio koji. These aren't just seasonings; they are the foundational layers that give our best plant‑based omakase restaurant its soul and complexity.
