gyoza
This gyoza with a flaky croissant crust is so sought after it took a year for our order to arrive.
With all the flavors of a pot sticker in the perfect portion size, you can’t go wrong with the Gyoza Dog!
We go on a post-midnight gyoza run to a shop with no staff — all part of our new normal in Japan.
Japanese dumplings are considered a side dish at many restaurants, but at this store, they’re the star of the show.
The sake offer reeled us in, and with the dumplings and karaage, this downtown eatery now basically owns our souls.
This restaurant-machine fusion is one small step for vending, one giant leap for vending-machine-kind.
