Trippin': Vancouver - Gyoza King

1508 Robson Street
Vancouver, BC V6G 1C2, Canada

I've become the notorious decision maker of where to go when it comes to traveling. I think me and my peeps are generally pretty whatevs about things but a big pet peeve of mine is being in limbo and wasting precious time trying to decide what to do and where to go when you're visiting another city. Remember folks! A hundred birds with one stone! So I pretty much researched and chose a few of the places that I thot would be interesting to try while in Vancouver. Of course, they were all hole-in-walls! I'm no tu-tu frou-frou fine dining gal. That was a Real Housewives of NY shout-out. Hah! One of the restaurants that I chose was Gyoza King. I chose this place for several reasons. I wanted something Asian, something fair priced and something that closed late! We would be going to eat there after a whole day on a mtn that closed at 10pm. We got there around 11pm or so and basically ate like zombies cos we were so darn tired. The place is teeny tiny and very busy, which resulted in us having to wait a bit before getting a chance to even sit down. Even then, we had to sit at the bar. The waitresses were all very Japanesey. Heavily accented English with a lot of Harajuku thrown into the mix. I can't remember everything that we ordered but mos def we ordered some gyoza, of course. I love gyoza! And mochi and I shared the shrimp with mayo. And that's about it. It was dark inside the restaurant and I didn't feel like using the flash so the fotos below are super dark. It's not so bad on my laptop but on work computer, the fotos are pretty much black. So hopefully you can see them!
