    初めて宇都宮餃子を食べるので、お店選びに迷いました。好きな作家さんが『来らっせ』で食べていたのを思い出し、最初はここでと来てみました。常設店舗コーナーがお勧めのようでそちらに入店。「宇都宮みんみん」がお気に入り。友人は「さつき」と1皿6個ずつなのでシェアしながらいろいろなお店の味を楽しめるのが良いですね。お気に入りのお店の冷凍餃子をお土産で買えます。

    This gyoza specialty restaurant is located approximately four minutes on foot from Hakata Station, and is always bustling with nearby office workers and families. The bite-size gyoza are handmade, by carefully stretching the dough and wrapping it around the filling made with 14 types of ingredients.
