Gyoza Oriental Cuisine


A couple weeks ago, some food bloggers planned to meet up for lunch together with Njomany - a comic writer and food lover (but not yet become a food blogger). He recommended to try one of his old time favorite restaurants named Gyoza.

It came to my surprise when I arrived at the Gyoza restaurant and found it out that it's a Chinese restaurant instead of a Japanese restaurant. Well, I think the name of Gyoza is a bit misleading since it  Japanese word for dumpling. Why not use the Chinese word for dumpling such as Ziao Ji, Suikiaw or Guo Tie? It just makes me wonder until now... Hmmm....

Overall, my opinion of the food in this restaurant is decent.

Gyoza - Rp. 63.000 (for 10 pieces)
Fried dumplings

Boiled dumplings

Ayam Pedas (Sauteed Chicken with Dried Chili) - Rp. 83.000
I was already a bit afraid when we ordered the spicy chicken because I can't stand chili. Lucky for me, it's not spicy at all but then I guess for others who expected a spicy dish, it might become a disappointment.

Kulit Tahu Rebung - Rp. 63.000
Most of us think this dish is the highlight of the lunch.

Mantau (Chinese buns) - @ Rp. 14.000
Fried - nice crispy.

 Steamed

Sapi Dingin Ketimun - Rp. 88.000
(Beef in Chinese Herbs with Cucumber served cold)

Nasi Goreng Udang Pancet (King size Tiger Prawn Fried Rice)- Rp. 110.000
I could love this tasty over expensive fried rice but unfortunately, it was sodium overloaded!

1 USD = Rp. 9.500
