About us
Proper food, cooked in our kitchen and packed the same day.
Umami began in 2018 in a small kitchen with one pot of noodles and a stubborn idea: food that is ready in minutes should still taste like someone cooked it. We still cook every recipe from scratch, with real vegetables, slow sauces and nothing you would not keep in your own cupboard.

What our customers say
Daniel Okafor
Office manager
Ready in four minutes and it honestly tastes like someone cooked it for me. The chilli garlic noodles are on every order now.
Priya Nair
Nurse, night shifts
I eat at strange hours, and these are the only quick meals that don't feel like a compromise. The butter masala is my favourite.
Marcus Bell
Student
Cheaper than takeaway, faster than cooking, and the packs of eight last me two weeks. The mac and cheese is perfect.
Amara Diallo

The porridge cups have replaced my rushed breakfast. Creamy, not too sweet and done before the kettle cools.
