Boom Noodle

Seattle has long been rich in Asian cuisines such as Thai, Korean and Vietnamese, but Japanese food has been slow to take root. Being obsessed with Japanese culture and cuisine, we wanted to help change this. At boom, we offer fresh ingredients, and recipes that are authentically Japanese or inspired by trends that we have noticed during our travels and dining in Tokyo. From hot soup and noodles, to items prepared on the wok, to chilled noodle dishes, to a variety of small plates, we hope we have created a healthy range of options for everyone. In Japan today there is a popular term, “my boom” that means, “The thing I am currently obsessed with.” Our “my boom” is Japanese cuisine, and we are grateful to you for letting us create our food for you.
