New Kamura Sakae: Your Guide to the Ultimate Gyoza Experience

Today's Main Event: Gyoza! Your First Step to a Smarter Dining Experience

Nestled on Princess Odori in Sakae, Naka-ku, Nagoya, you'll find 'Gyoza Neo-Tavern New Kamura Sakae Princess Odori.' This is a new style of izakaya that blends the vibrant energy of a traditional tavern with a contemporary flair. Whether it's for a drink after work, a lively gathering with friends, or a quiet meal savored alone, it's a place that enriches any dining occasion. While options like takeout and delivery have diversified our dining habits, New Kamura offers more than just delicious gyoza. By discovering our 'smart tips for enjoying gyoza,' tailored to your specific needs, your typical night out can become an extraordinary experience. Let's find the perfect gyoza strategy for you!

The Art of Pairing: Choosing Your Perfect 'Dedicated Gyoza'

The heart and soul of New Kamura are our juicy gyoza, hand-wrapped with care every single day. But these are no ordinary dumplings. Each is designed as a 'dedicated gyoza' to create the ultimate pairing with a specific drink. For anyone who appreciates a good drink, this attention to detail is irresistible. The true delight of the 'New Kamura experience' is selecting the perfect gyoza to match your mood and your chosen beverage.

Cheers with Beer-Dedicated Gyoza! Savor the Golden Pairing

  • Of course, the perfect match for an ice-cold beer is our 'Beer-Dedicated Gyoza'! The savory juices bursting from the crispy skin blend exquisitely with the unique bitterness of the beer, making it impossible to stop at just one. Beer and gyoza are a time-honored golden pairing. The moment of biting into a piping-hot gyoza and quenching your thirst with a cold beer is pure bliss. This combination is essential for that first drink after a long day at work. We highly recommend it to perfectly end your day.

A Refreshing Marriage: Lemon Sour-Dedicated Gyoza

  • For a fizzy and invigorating lemon sour, we recommend the 'Lemon Sour-Dedicated Gyoza.' The clean, crisp lemon sour enhances the gyoza's savory umami and provides a light finish. The harmony created by the richness of the gyoza, the acidity of the lemon, and the carbonation of the sour refreshes your palate, making you eager for the next bite. It's the perfect choice when you want to enjoy a light meal and good conversation, or simply crave something refreshing. This combination is a particular favorite among our female guests.

A Powerful Pairing: Highball-Dedicated Gyoza

  • For a crisp highball, we recommend the 'Highball-Dedicated Gyoza.' The carbonation cleanses your palate, allowing you to fully appreciate the gyoza's rich, impactful flavor. The aromatic notes of the whiskey and the deep umami of the gyoza come together in a powerful combination that enhances both. This is an excellent choice when you're looking for a hearty meal or want to savor your drink. It's especially popular with our male customers, who often find themselves in an endless, delicious cycle of gyoza and highballs.

Because we have a 'dedicated' gyoza for every drink, you can enjoy the magic of pairing—that's our charm. Which gyoza speaks to you today?

More Than Just Gyoza! Smart Ways to Enjoy Our Side Dishes

New Kamura's charm extends beyond our gyoza. Our popular side dishes, unforgettable after just one bite, are here to enrich your dining experience. By incorporating them smartly, an even more satisfying meal awaits.

A Hearty Portion! How to Best Enjoy Our Famous 'Fried Half-Chicken'

  • As 'Customer B' raved, it was 'even more delicious than expected!' Our Fried Half-Chicken is, as the name implies, a magnificent dish of half a chicken fried to perfection. Crispy and fragrant on the outside, with juices bursting from the tender meat inside, it's a true showstopper. Carefully seasoned with a blend of spices and flash-fried at a high temperature, the chicken's natural umami is brought to the forefront. It's large enough to share, allowing everyone to enjoy its volume and flavor, but indulging in one all by yourself is a luxurious treat. One bite of this piping-hot delicacy will melt away your fatigue and surely bring a smile to your face.

Dangerously Addictive! Making the Most of Our Free-Refill 'Moyashida' Bean Sprouts

  • Served as an otoshi (complimentary appetizer) or as part of select set menus, our 'Moyashida' (Moyajiro) comes with free refills! With its addictive special sauce, this dish is perfect as a palate cleanser or a side for your drinks. We were delighted to hear from 'Customer A,' who said, 'The delicious, free-refill bean sprouts alone are worthy of a high rating.' The crisp texture of the sprouts combined with the rich, slightly spicy sauce whets the appetite, earning it a reputation for being 'infinitely edible.' Use it to refresh your palate between main dishes like gyoza and fried chicken. The smart way to enjoy it is to get multiple refills and savor the experience. It's a versatile all-star that's great on its own with a beer and serves as a hidden gem that boosts your satisfaction without breaking the bank.

Don't Forget the Hidden Gem: 'Renkon no Jakkan'

  • As 'Customer B' mentioned, 'The gyoza were great, and the Renkon no Jakkan was amazing!' this hidden favorite is another dish you must try. The unique, crisp texture of the lotus root pairs perfectly with its subtly sweet and savory seasoning. Among a menu with many fried and meat dishes, it serves as an excellent palate cleanser. By smartly adding dishes like this alongside classics like gyoza and fried chicken, you can create a more diverse and engaging dining experience. Be sure to check out our seasonal recommendations as well.
