A Limited-Edition Menu Showcasing the Elegance and Artistry of Australian Tajima Wagyu
Morimoto at The Langham, Jakarta has rolled out a limited-edition Tajima Wagyu menu — a month-long celebration of marbling, mastery, and unapologetic indulgence. Running 30 October–28 November 2025, the menu centres on Australian Tajima Wagyu, a breed once guarded like a national treasure in Japan. Now raised on the lush plains of southern Australia — think cattle on a luxury wellness retreat with fresh pasture and 400 days of grain finishing — it yields beef that is absurdly tender, buttery, and self-confident enough to melt at a glance.

Chef Juntaro Fujimura & his team
Eight Courses of Intentional Ruin
Executive Chef Juntaro Fujimura’s launch night eight-course tasting is a love letter to excess done right. Highlights include:
• Hand-cut inside skirt tartare (MBS 6–7) with Perseus Caviar and quail egg — a silky opener that means business.
• Yahata Maki (MBS 7–8 ribeye) with yuzu kosho, asparagus, and enoki — elegance with a pulse.
• Signature Striploin Nigiri (MBS 5–6) brushed with yakiniku glaze and chive salsa — one bite, irreversible consequences.

Then comes “Land and Sea” — a sublime MBS 9 tenderloin pairs with robata-grilled freshwater prawn, served with the Ultimate Wagyu Fried Rice, a dish built to haunt you in the best way.

Cocktails That Know Their Role — and Steal Scenes Anyway
Morimoto’s cocktails, from Sudachizake to the Kocho Whisky Sour; they flirt and occasionally upstage. Japanese precision with tropical swagger — dangerously drinkable.

Prefer a slower descent into indulgence? The à la carte selection (from 31 October) includes Surf & Turf with Robata tenderloin MBS 9 and Alaskan king crab, or the Tajima Wagyu Beef Selection, offered in four premium cuts — tenderloin, ribeye, striploin, and inside skirt — each accompanied by grilled shimeji mushrooms and beef reduction jus.

“This menu is a dialogue between tradition and innovation,” says Chef Juntaro Fujimura. “Tajima Wagyu’s purity and depth of flavour allow us to express Japanese cuisine with global nuance — elegant, soulful, and deeply satisfying.”

Elegant, indulgent, and impeccably composed, the Tajima Wagyu experience at Morimoto Jakarta is a showcase of refined pleasure — where culinary precision meets heartfelt artistry, and each mouthful reflects the enduring grace of Japanese sophistication.
