That right there is a great picture, and why I like the Japanese gyoza a little more than the Chinese potsticker. While the potsticker concentrates on filling, the gyoza is all about the wrapper.

Went to this new takoyaki joint called Tacoyaki 17 located outside the Southeast Exit of Shinjuku Station. There are 17 fusion style takoyaki you can choose from hence the name. Intrigued and hungry I gave it a shot. I noticed that "American Morning" was no. 1 so I chose that. The AM consisted of scrambled eggs, bacon and ketchup topping. Being an American, my expectations were high and I knew I was in for a delight. WRONG!!!!!!! My initial reaction when I bit into one was "WTF!!!" Totally disgusting and I was actually pissed off at myself for gambling on America. I threw the ish away because it tasted like a nasty corn dog with runny scrambled eggs. I dare not try the California Breeze.

Wow. Thanks for sharing notwithstanding the less than appetizing experience you had That does look pretty funky I'll admit...

I see what you're saying. The ramen shop I ate those gyoza at did a good job with the whole stream fry thing...so as to have a nice crispy crust on the one hand without the gyoza skin being too dried out.
I'm sure those who frequent this board who actually reside in Japan could show even more delectable examples.
