After a long day of work, you are looking forward to something to eat and drink. Maybe, you are looking for a light snack before you hit the town for the night. If you are in Imaike, I suggest that you go to Hyakuroutei (百老亭）and eat some handmade gyoza (pot stickers). Most of the time when you are eating gyoza, you also probably eating ramen too. The ramen is the main focus of the meal,while, the gyoza is a side dish to accompany the ramen. However, this shop's main focus is the gyoza.
I am huge fan of gyoza. I love pan-fried gyoza. So when I found this shop in Imaike, I was very happy. Handmade gyoza restaurants are rare in Japan, but recently they have becoming more and more popular. At this shop, the gyoza is the main item. There are four different preparations: pan fried, in water, in egg soup, and in soup in which the gyoza can be prepared.
Gyoza are a perfect otsumami (おつまみ), foods that you eat while you drink alcohol. These dumplings go well with beer or shochu. If you a fan of gyoza or having a light snack before going out drinking, I highly suggest going to Hyakuroutei and eat some gyoza.
If you are at Imaike Station, you will see this sign. The shop is about a 5 minute walk from the station.
