Back in my uni days I used to take a ‘dumpling tour’ in the Sydney CBD on weekends, and one thing I learnt is that, everyone loves dumplings. Lots of them too!

So it’s not surprisingly that Harajuku Gyoza, a cute little gyoza joint in Potts Point, is quite the popular spot for a quick dumpling fix.

Pork and Prawn Gyoza with Ginger and Spring Onion Dressing, Grilled ($9.8)

The menu is mostly filled with different gyoza varieties, as well as some izakaya share plates. Pork and prawn gyoza are like your typical Japanese style gyoza, with soft a soft wrapper encasing a delicate prawn and pork filling. The ginger and spring onion dressing is light and tasty.

Beef with Shiso Gyoza, Grilled ($8.3)

Beef is a much less common choice of filling, but the beef with shiso gyoza is surprisingly tasty, the shiso imparting an unusual but delicious flavour.

Mozzarella Cheese with Semi-dried Tomato Gyoza, Crispy Fried ($9.2)

For someone completely different we also try the mozzerella cheese and semi dried tomato gyoza which is super crispy, with stretchy cheese in each bite.

Tempura Eggplant ($8.5)

Tempura eggplant is fried in a light, crispy batter, the eggplant itself silky smooth.
