The Taste of Impermanence

Inspired by Japan’s coastal bounty and Vietnam’s soulful warmth, Yuzu’s Summer Menu 2025 is a multi-layered symphony of sensations. This seasonal journey brings you moments where the flickering heat of a seared Hotate is softened by a delicate clam broth that lingers gently on the palate—only to be lifted moments later by the citrus brightness of the “Yuzu not Yuzu” dessert. It’s a culinary narrative crafted with care, one that moves between contrast and harmony.

Summer, like a great omakase, is an experience best savored in layers. From cooling lightness to deep umami, from softness to intensity, each dish is shaped through temperature, texture, and restraint—revealing the art of storytelling through food. This is more than a tasting menu; it is a seasonal philosophy brought to life through flavor, ambiance, and emotion. And for those seeking a truly immersive culinary journey, there’s no better way to experience it than with omakase in Ho Chi Minh City.

Four Menus. Four Ways to Feel Summer.

Summer never stays in stillness—its essence shifts, moves, and evolves. At Yuzu Omakase, that spirit is captured through four thoughtfully crafted menus: The Rhythm, The Moment, The Journey, and The One. Each menu reflects a different expression of the season, where every ingredient is handpicked with intention, and every dish is a deliberate step in a sensory journey meant to be remembered. This isn’t just seasonal dining—it’s a poetic experience of omakase in Ho Chi Minh City.

4. The One - When Timing Becomes Meaning (coming soon)

Unlike other menus, The One has no fixed schedule. It cannot be planned—it must be felt. This elusive menu appears only when everything aligns: when ingredients are at their absolute prime, when the story finds its purest form, and when the chef’s inspiration is undeniably present. It is born from instinct, timing, and a deep respect for the fleeting nature of perfection. No two iterations are ever quite the same, and that’s exactly the point. The One is an offering of intuition and artistry—a rare, intimate expression of omakase in Ho Chi Minh City that unfolds only when the moment is truly right.

Mark the date where a final whisper before the season moves on:

• Amadai Palette - the "king of white fish," known for its silk-like texture and crystalline sweetness.
• Wagyu Misuji with 23-year-aged caviar - layering depth upon depth of umami.
• Chiayu, once again, as a final ode to summer - crisp, delicate, and quietly unforgettable.
