Hello NAMIKA supporters! 😊

It definitely feels like the warmer weather is here! But with the temperature still changing throughout the day, take care and don’t catch a cold.

It’s been a little while since our last feed post.

We’ve been quite busy, and with a few things happening behind the scenes, it hasn’t always been the easiest time. But as always, we’ve been doing our best to make sure every guest at NAMIKA has the experience we want to provide.

These days, it feels like I’m preparing and ageing salmon almost every day.

Yesterday, we actually ran out of our aged salmon and couldn’t serve our Salmon Sake Don. 🥹

I could have simply prepared fresh salmon and served it straight away, but I chose not to. I’d rather wait until it reaches the quality and flavour I want you to experience. I hope you can understand my little bit of stubbornness when it comes to this. 😅

So, why do we age our salmon?

Ageing helps reduce excess moisture and bring out more of the salmon’s natural umami and flavour. As moisture gradually reduces, the flavour becomes more concentrated, while the texture becomes softer, richer and more refined.

For us, ageing isn’t about keeping the fish for longer. It’s about taking the extra time and care to bring it closer to what we believe is its best condition before it reaches your plate.

It takes a little more work, but if you can taste even a small difference in every bite, we think it’s worth it.

Thank you, as always, for supporting NAMIKA. 🫶

See you at NAMIKA!

🍶 NEW SAKE AT NAMIKA — HAKUSHIKA SILK

A new sake has arrived at NAMIKA.

Hakushika Karakuchi Junmai SILK
Made with 100% Yamadanishiki rice from Hyogo, Japan.

As its name “SILK” suggests, this Junmai sake has a beautifully smooth and silky texture, followed by a clean, crisp and dry finish.

Its gentle rice umami complements food rather than overpowering it, making it an excellent sake to enjoy throughout your meal.

We especially recommend pairing it with sashimi, aged fish and richer cuts of fish, where its clean finish beautifully balances the natural richness and umami of the seafood.

Best enjoyed chilled. 🍶

HAKUSHIKA SILK KARAKUCHI JUNMAI
• Hyogo, Japan
• 100% Yamadanishiki Rice
• Dry & Clean
• Smooth & Silky
• ABV 14–15%

Available now at NAMIKA Japanese Dining.

Hello, NAMIKA family!

It feels like it’s been a while since our last post. We always want to stay connected with you, but we’ve been using “being busy” as an excuse for posting less often.

The weather has been quite cold lately, with big temperature changes throughout the day. We hope you’re all staying warm, healthy, and doing well.

Thanks to everyone who continues to visit and support NAMIKA, we’ve been incredibly busy, and we truly couldn’t be more grateful. We’ve noticed more and more familiar faces returning every week, and seeing so many regular guests means the world to us. ☺️

As we continue to grow, we’ve been hiring and training new team members to provide an even better dining experience. At the same time, I’m still learning, studying, and working every day to improve both our food and our service.

Even with a larger team, there are times when many orders arrive at once, and some guests still have to wait longer than we’d like. We know waiting isn’t ideal, so we’d like to make that time a little more enjoyable by serving bowl of lightly sea-salted edamame per table as a complimentary starter while you wait.

We understand that this won’t completely make up for longer wait times during our busiest periods. However, we hope it shows that we genuinely recognize the issue and are constantly looking for ways to improve.

To our amazing team who work so hard every day, and to every guest who chooses to dine with us and enjoys our food—thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Your support allows us to keep doing what we love, and we will continue working hard to repay that support with even better food, warmer hospitality, and a better experience every time you visit.

Thank you for being part of the NAMIKA journey. We look forward to welcoming you again soon. 🙏🍣

Hello NAMIKA supporters!

I hope you’ve all been doing well!

I’m getting ready to head back to Australia, and I just wanted to say thank you once again for your understanding while I spent this past week with my family. It truly meant the world to me, and we made so many wonderful memories together. ☺️

While I was in Korea, I also spent some time preparing a few new things for NAMIKA.

Our new outdoor menu board is already ready to go, and our table menus will be updated as soon as I’m back in Australia.

I’ve also prepared new business cards and a business card holder after noticing that many of you have been asking for one. On top of that, we’ve refreshed our open/close signage to give the restaurant a cleaner and more polished look.

They’re all small improvements, but they’re my way of making sure NAMIKA continues to become a better place for everyone who visits.

Thank you again for your patience, understanding, and continued support. It truly means so much to us.

We’ll be working hard over the next couple of days, and we can’t wait to welcome you back from July 1st.

See you very soon! 🇦🇺🍣

Hello NAMIKA supporters!

I hope you’ve all had a wonderful weekend.

As I write this, I’m currently on a flight to Korea 😊

With the restaurant becoming busier than ever, taking time away was not an easy decision. However, since the return flight to Australia is an overnight flight, I simply couldn’t ask my wife to manage a long journey alone with our son, who is not even one year old yet. So, although it was a difficult decision, I’m heading to Korea to bring my wife and son home to Australia.

I sincerely appreciate your understanding and support for this decision made for my family.

Of course, even while I’m in Korea, I’ll still be thinking about NAMIKA every day and looking for ways to provide even better food and service for all of you 😊

I’m looking forward to spending some much-needed time with my family, recharging for a week, and returning with even more energy and passion to welcome you back to NAMIKA.

Thank you for always supporting us, dining with us, and showing us so much love. Your support truly means the world to me.

Thank you for your understanding, and I look forward to seeing you again when we reopen on 1 July.

Hello NAMIKA supporters 😄

Hope you’re having a wonderful Thursday!

The weather has turned gloomy again today, but one thing we love about the colder season is that the fish seem to get bigger and richer in flavour as the water temperature drops. ☺️

This morning, I visited the fish market and brought back some beautiful kingfish and salmon that were noticeably larger than the ones we received just a few days ago.

They are now being carefully prepared and aged, and will be ready to be enjoyed this weekend. ✨

As more and more guests continue to visit NAMIKA, we are putting even greater care into sourcing and preparing the best ingredients possible.

Recently, we’ve unfortunately had to turn away a number of walk-in guests due to being fully booked, and for that, I sincerely apologise.

At NAMIKA, we believe freshness comes first. We try to prepare and slice our fish as close to service time as possible, which means much of our preparation is planned around our reservations to ensure the highest quality experience for every guest.

Walk-ins are always welcome, but if possible, we highly recommend making a reservation in advance. For larger groups, pre-ordering can also help us provide a smoother and more enjoyable dining experience.

As an owner-chef, I constantly think about how we can improve. There are still many things we can do better, and I challenge myself every day to provide a better experience for both our guests and our team.

Thank you for your continued support, patience, and encouragement.

We truly wouldn’t be here without you.

See you at NAMIKA. 😊

Hello NAMIKA friends,

The weather has definitely gotten much colder lately!

As the ocean temperature drops, fish naturally develop more fat to prepare for winter, which is why winter is often considered the best season to enjoy seafood. 😁

We’ve been incredibly grateful to see more and more people visiting and supporting NAMIKA. Your support motivates us to work even harder to source the freshest and highest-quality ingredients possible every single day.

A special thank you also goes to the team at , who continue to take great care of us and help us secure beautiful seafood for our customers.

The fish in these photos is Bluefin Tuna. Lately, whenever it becomes available, they’ve been making sure to save some for us. Thanks to that, we’ve been able to serve consistently fresh and high-quality tuna, and it truly makes us happy. 😊

Thank you all for your support, and congratulations on making it through another week!

Why not finish the week with us at NAMIKA? 🥰

The weather in Brisbane has suddenly become much colder lately 🍵

So from today, we’ll be welcoming our guests with complimentary warm Genmaicha at Namika.

Just a small gesture,
but we hope it makes your meal feel a little warmer this winter.
