And while these combinations sound strange, they surprisingly work. Here are five over-the-top cheesy dishes we can’t resist.
Gyoza-ya
A good springy gyoza can only be made better when it’s drenched in gooey cheese. Gyoza-ya serves their Japanese dumplings slathered with a thick serving of melting cheese on top ($5.80), complements the juicy pork filling perfectly. We’ll have another please. #B1-02A Robinsons Heeren 260 Orchard Road Tel: 6737 5581
