Nishiki Gyoza

Nishiki Gyoza aims to make customers smile with their tasty gyoza.
Their gyoza (Chinese-style dumplings popular in Japan) feature hearty, tightly packed filling. This was born from the personal touch of the chef Ryota Fujioka.
“I made it as a token of my appreciation to cheer up the staff at my own restaurant, and these dumplings with more filling than usual made them smile.”
Fujioka’s experience led him to further pursue gyoza, and he finally opened Nishiki Gyoza. “I want to make customers smile with my gyoza.” Fujioka’s new endeavor to pursue perfection with gyoza begins here in Nishiki Market, Kyoto.
