‹ The Dumpling 100 › Utsunomiya
No. 10 in the world · November 2026
Utsunomiya Minmin (main shop)
No. 10The one to order
Yaki gyoza (pan-fried), sui gyoza (boiled) and age gyoza (deep-fried), one plate of each
Utsunomiya is Japan's gyoza city, and Minmin's main shop is where people line up to prove it: gyoza, rice and beer, nothing else.
Make it at home
Pan-fried gyoza with garlic and chives
1 hr · About 30, 4 people. Japan's garlicky take on the potsticker: thin wrappers, finely chopped cabbage and chives, a crisp lacy bottom and a dip of soy, rice vinegar and chili oil.
