Buy Wagyu Beef Online in HCMC

Living in Ho Chi Minh City and craving the wagyu you used to enjoy in Japan? Ordinary imported beef from the local supermarket rarely satisfies that memory, and shipping directly from Japan is complicated. The Farmi app brings A5-grade wagyu to your door in HCMC with chilled delivery.

Farmi imports wagyu directly from Japan and delivers it chilled throughout HCMC. Search, select your cut, add to cart, and choose a delivery slot. Genuine wagyu quality, delivered to your kitchen.

Wagyu cuts available on Farmi

Sirloin

The most popular wagyu cut. Fine marbling creates a perfect balance of sweet fat and savory lean meat. Ideal for steak or sukiyaki, and an excellent first wagyu purchase for anyone new to the experience.

Ribeye

From the shoulder-adjacent back section, with slightly more fat than sirloin for a richer, more intense flavor. Thinly sliced for sukiyaki or shabu-shabu, it melts on the tongue. Excellent for yakiniku too.

Fillet (tenderloin)

A rare cut, with very little available per animal. Lower in fat but exceptionally tender with a delicate flavor. Best enjoyed as a thick steak with just salt and wasabi.

What A5 grade means

A5 is the highest grade under the Japan Meat Grading Association system. A indicates a high yield ratio, and 5 means the meat scored the highest possible marks in four categories: marbling (BMS), color and luster, firmness, and fat quality. A5 wagyu begins to melt at body temperature, which produces that characteristic sensation of fat dissolving the moment it touches your tongue.

How to store wagyu at home

  • Refrigerator (eating within 2 days) : store in the chiller section (0-2°C). Keep the original packaging and remove it 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature for even heat distribution
  • Freezer (storing longer) : wrap each portion tightly in cling film, seal in a zip bag, and freeze. Keeps for about 1 month. Thaw slowly in the fridge for 6-8 hours; avoid the microwave to minimize drip loss

How to cook wagyu

Steak

Simple preparation lets wagyu shine. Rest the beef at room temperature for 30 minutes, then season with salt just before cooking. Heat a cast-iron pan over high heat until very hot. Sear each side for 1-2 minutes, then rest wrapped in foil for 3-5 minutes. Serve with wasabi and salt, or ponzu, to complement the natural sweetness of the beef.

Sukiyaki

Thinly sliced ribeye or chuck roll are ideal. Simmer with vegetables in warishita (a blend of soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and sake), then dip each piece in beaten raw egg. Japanese condiments like soy sauce and mirin are also available on Farmi.

Yakiniku

Use short rib (kalbi) or skirt steak (harami) on a hot plate or grill. With A5 wagyu, salt and a squeeze of lemon is enough to let the true depth of flavor come through.
