Wagamama: Wagamama

According to their advertising materials, Wagamama restaurants are found around the world: Boston, Auckland, Sydney, Dublin, Amsterdam and so on. But it was only when we arrived in London last year, that we first discovered this restaurant chain The noodle dishes and curries came highly recommended by friends, and it has quickly become one of our own favourite dining destinations.

The Wimbledon version of Wagamama is located at 46 Wimbledon Hill Road, a short walk from the Wimbledon tube and train station. It’s a relatively big place, which I’d say would seat over 100 people at a time. That said, it gets pretty crowded and the restaurants don’t generally take bookings, so I’ve noticed that people with large groups sometimes have to wait for a table (or two) to become available.

The restaurant takes a minimalist approach to décor, and seating is canteen-style, on benches around long rectangular tables. Underneath the table there’s a storage area for bags, and there’s also coat hooks available on the walls for those nights when it’s much colder outside than in.

Once we were seated, our waitress took our order for drinks and starters, noting down our selections on the paper placemats in front of us. On the drinks menu, there is a selection of beers, wines, juices and soft-drinks, including some Japanese specialities such as Asahi beer, Sake and plum wine. Starters include dumplings, soya beans, skewers and miso soup.

The main menu is largely focused around noodles and rice dishes, ranging in price from £6 – £10. These meals seemed to be cooked in batches, and delivered as soon as they’re ready, which meant that my friends’ meals must’ve arrived about 5-10 minutes before mine. No matter. The ebi kare lomen (if you don’t trust your Japanese pronunciation, each meal also has a number: this one was 35) was worth the wait. Noodles in a spicy soup, with grilled prawns. Yum! Though with the all the spiciness, I just wished I hadn’t finished my drink before it arrived.

However, for me the highlight is always the dessert menu. Or rather one part of the dessert menu: the white chocolate and ginger cheesecake (about £4.50 from memory), which is truly the best cheesecake I’ve eaten anywhere.

With so many people talking and slurping their soups, this isn’t an ideal venue for a romantic date. But the food’s great, the staff are friendly and there are knives and forks available if you can’t quite manage your chopsticks.
