MEI WEI DUMPLINGS, THE STAR

CASINO DRIVE, BROADBEACH ISLAND

According to Asian food expert and writer Andrea Nguyen, pot stickers are actually the original gyoza. The Japanese were introduced to pot stickers – jiaozi – during World War II when they spent time in North China. That’s why Chinese eatery Mei Wei’s pot stickers bear a striking resemblance to gyoza – or rather, why gyoza bear a striking resemblance to pot stickers. At Mei Wei you’ll find deliciously crispy stickers filled with expertly seasoned pork, beef and chicken.
