About Us

Umami is one of the five basic tastes sensed by the palate. Umami by Design, as it's name suggests, is a specialist wine and beverage consultancy that articulates the five taste sensations perfectly for a well-rounded dining experience.

Initiated in 2006, after more than 20 years of hospitality experience, Umami by Design believes in providing the most efficient and tailored wine list to suit your clientele and budget.

Many restaurants place most of the emphasis on food. Umami by Design believes that it is necessary to give just as much thought to the quality and efficiency of the wine list, not to mention, the overall venue. For it is in the complete experience that all patrons discover a restaurant worth telling their friends about.

Further to creating a perfectly suited wine list, Umami by Design train staff to cater for a broader range of patrons, organise printing of wine lists with 24 hour notice and can offer expert advice on any other venue related queries.
