Anyone who has spent a day with me knows my deep love for food. A good veggie gyoza is hard to find. Growing up in a suburb of DC, Alexandria, VA, my friends and I would often hang out at Springfield Mall. The food court there housed a great little yogurt place that now I’ve forgotten the name of. It was a chain restaurant that you’d find at most malls in the area, but the asian family who ran this place would make special veggie gyoza and sell them on the D/L. I’m not sure what happened; if they got in trouble for selling them, but all of a sudden, the gyoza were gone and they went back to only selling frozen yogurt. My heart pines for these delicious dumplings, but finding the happy little dumplings on Etsy by One Square Tree makes it hurt a little less. Buy one ($5) or save when you buy three ($12). These are the twee-est of the twee.

Hi Leigh,
We just came across your article! How lovely that we could remind you of such lovely times – we, too, have a deep, close love affair with food ^_^
Thank you so much for the feature + shout out!
Have a lovely weekend + if you’re ever in the NYC area perhaps we can do a scavenger or poll for the best gyozas in the city!
xoxo
