YUMYUM'S KITCHEN

Welcome to Yumyum's Kitchen! 

I'm Yoko Ortega, the heart behind Yumyum's Kitchen. I am originally from rural part of Japan called Yamagata, Japan. My journey took me from Tokyo, where I met and married my husband, a U.S. Naval Aviator, to Hanford, CA and now Chicago, IL. Life in Hanford inspired me to embrace culinary adventures, leading me to start Yumyum's kitchen to share authentic Japanese flavors with the community in cooking classes, caterings, and Bento box take-outs! 

And now, as a proud veteran and minority-owned business, we are excited to ship our Signature Yumyum's Crunchy Chili Oil to your doors!
