Boasting a cumulative attendance of over 3 million visitors, this event showcases the evolving possibilities and trends of gyoza, captivating dumpling enthusiasts. Visitors can enjoy over 25 varieties of craft gyoza gathered from all over Japan, ranging from the latest trendy "neo gyoza" to classic juicy, artisan-made dumplings. Craft gyoza refers to dumplings crafted with uncompromising artisan dedication to every detail—from the wrappers and fillings to the dipping sauces. Packed with each shop's passion and originality, these creative gyoza are one-of-a-kind dishes brimming with endless possibilities. The menu features diverse preparations including pan-fried, deep-fried, and soup gyoza. The Nagoya venue in particular presents many debut menu items, such as Italian-style gyoza topped with vibrant tomato-basil sauce and cheese, round gyoza combining rich cheddar cheese sauce with juicy meat filling, mentaiko-cheese gyoza harmonizing savory spicy cod roe with mellow cheese, and hamburger-steak-like pan-fried gyoza made luxuriously with Kuroge Wagyu beef. Enjoy selected craft gyoza and craft beer to your heart's content while basking in the pleasant autumn breeze.
