Wagamama - Harvard Square

57 JFK Street, Cambridge, 02138

Things seem to move fast at Wagamama - the Asian inspired, noodle restaurant chain that was started in 1992 in the UK. As soon as you decide what you want to eat, your order is taken via a PDA, and wirelessly networked to the kitchen, so it can be made fresh and served right after. The restaurant chain does not believe in taking reservations, and all customers are seated on a first come, first served basis. In fact, be aware that most of the tables are long ones and you will often be asked to share them. The restaurants are modelled on traditional Japanese ramen bars that have been popular for hundreds of years - ramen are Japanese style noodles, served in a meat-based broth, topped with pork, dried seaweed or even corn.

The restaurants are modelled on traditional Japanese ramen bars that have been popular for hundreds of years - ramen are Japanese style noodles, served in a meat-based broth, topped with pork, dried seaweed or even corn. Chilli beef ramen, made of noodles in a spicy soup topped with a grilled, sliced steak and fresh vegetables, is hearty and satisfying.

Apart from ramen, you could opt for the coconut soup based kare noodles or teppan, cooked on a hot, flat griddle. They also offer many rice dishes like chicken katsu curry, deep-fried chicken breast coated in panko breadcrumbs, served with a light curry sauce and sticky white rice. Vegetarians are definitely not ignored, as they can opt for moyashi soba, made using whole-wheat noodles in a soup topped with stir-fried vegetables, and garnished with sliced scallion.

Meat and vegetable dumplings, skewered chicken, deep-fried shrimps and raw salads double as both sides and starters. Steamed green soya-beans, called edamame, go well with drinks - hold them up to your mouth and squeeze the succulent beans from the pod. If you've noticed, Wagamama is more about eating healthy food fast and less about the order. Don't be surprised if you're served the main course before the side dish - order isn't important, the aim is, don't wait - just tuck in and share.

Wind up your meal with sake, wine or even a Japanese beer. At Wagamama, you can also shop for cookbooks, gift vouchers and t-shirts. The restaurant is all about enjoying genuine, reasonably priced, Pan-Asian cuisine in a sleek but informal setting.
