Hamamatsu, Shizuoka, Japan｜Kojimaya

*Temporarily closed on Sunday, February 6, 2022* Visited on February 3rd and took out raw dumplings. Gyoza dumplings with sweet bean paste with garlic, very delicious with a homely taste. Comes with sweet and sour sauce and hot and delicious chili oil (wrapped in plastic wrap). I heard from the proprietress that it would be better to add "hot water" instead of cold water at the end, so I put it into practice. I covered it with a lid and kept it on low heat all the time. Take-out only, closed Mondays and Tuesdays. At times like this, it is recommended to make a reservation by phone, even on the same day.

Stopped by on a business trip. It was very delicious. I wish it was closer to home. I ate 10 pieces in no time with the chewy skin and sweet ingredients. Currently, it is only open for takeout, but the wife was kind and good.

Lately, I've been having these gyoza grilled at a restaurant and taking them out😋They have a lot of vegetables and are delicious even when they're cold. I bought it raw and tried grilling it several times at home, but it never came out as well😆 When I can eat at a restaurant again, I want to eat a freshly baked gyoza set meal.
