I havent been here for a while because the guy is not there anymore and the food quality seems to have gone down.
On my previous visit, the burger bun was dehydrated.
It was the woman this time so I only got the hotdog.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Mini hotdog:
Surprisingly, the hotdog was ok, the bun was soft.
The frankfurter, tomato ketchup and mustard tasted great together giving a tangy taste.

Reviews from supersupergirl on openrice for Hong Kong and Macau restaurants
[Review 3145] Yummy Quesadillas @ ViLLAGE KEBAB
31/01/2014
ViLLAGE KEBAB
西貢福民路952號高富樓地下37號舖
Shop 37, G/F., Ko Fu House, 952 Fuk Man Road, Sai Kung
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/yummy-quesadillas-e2344514
Went to Sai Kung for food and dined here because no one was dining here.
You could tell that people were afraid to try the food from their reactions but after I sat down the Hong Kongers were not afraid to try because the restaurant was not empty.
Another thing that I observed is that HKers seem to be afraid of empty restaurants so when they choose their seats, they will sit near another table of diners.
In the UK, people like to spread themselves out.
I find that particularly annoying when I want peace and quiet and people have to sit nearby and yak with loud voices.
Since my last visit there are more choices on the menu.
I want to try their pasta because it is probably cooked in an Indian way with spices but it was a public holiday that day, so they don't serve it.
In the end I had the Quesadilla.
There is a choice chicken or falafel but I wanted both so I had a mix of the two.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Quesadilla with falafel and chicken:
hKD62
There was a sauce missing according to the photo, so I asked the guy and he came back with the green sauce.
I thought it was guacamole but it was Indian mint sauce.
The salsa sauce was amazing, it was diced tomatoes and onions in vinagrette with super fragrant cumin.
The Quesadilla was just divine because the it was crispy filled with cheese, falafel and roasted chicken, and the cheese was gooey and soft.

[Review 3144] Chocolate burgers and mini icecream cones @ Chocolat-ier

https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/chocolate-burgers-and-mini-icecream-cones-e2344487
I have not been to Chocolat-ier for ages but recently I had this cute confectionary Cornetto and Chocolat-ier had it too so decided to try theirs.
I got these last year and forgot to review them until I read the recent reviews on Chocolat-ier which jogged my memory.
As well as mini confectionery icecream cones, they also had chocolate burgers and pizzas.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Chocolate burger:
Basically it was a biscuit sandwiched in between two halves of chocolate.
It was quite nice just like having a chocolate biscuit with a bigger proportion of chocolate.

[Review 3143] 炸黑毛豬丸 @ Spaingo

旺角登打士街43H號地下1號舖

This shop was opened last year but I couldn't find it listed on Openrice so I didn't bother listing it because quite a few I have tried to list have been rejected even though I have filled in the Name, telephone and address.
Last week it also happened, so I don't know why I bother!
Anyway, this shop is bright yellow and hard to miss.
They specialize in croquettes made with Iberian pigs 炸黑毛豬丸!!
There are eight sauces to choose from for the croquettes.
I ended up getting the potato wedges with the gravy.
It was delicious rich gravy and the wedges were nice and starchy.
Next time I will try the croquettes (炸黑毛豬丸).
Hard to appreciate food in Mong Kok because there are too many people and smokers about and it is difficult to try and take photos.

[Review 3142] More chocolates @ 阿里吧吧 Ali Baba

https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/more-chocolates-e2344471
I was given some chocolates over the new year so decided to write about them.
The silver and gold ones were chocolate filled with cornflakes, it was quite fun eating this because it was loose cornflakes inside.
The green one was chocolate filled with deliciously creamy caramel.
For candied aubergine, candied cactus and pistachio nougat, please read my previous review:

Thanks to Ivy for getting me this.
Basically it was a chocolate lollipop with covered with candy balls

A fun lollipop that you can just eat!!

[Review 3140] Genki rolls @ 元気寿司 Genki Sushi

Shop E139, 1/F, East Wing, TKO Gateway, 2 Sheung Ning Street, Tseung Kwan O
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/genki-rolls-e2344230
Decided to come here for sushi.
At the entrance they had some really interesting signs.
The first one welcomes eye seeing dogs which we call Guide dogs in UK.
The second sign is rather amusing because no pets are allowed especially PUGS!!
After asking locals, I found out that pugs are popular dogs among the Hong Kongers.
Anyway I was not very hungry so only had a few pieces of sushi.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Scallop skirts:
Basically the texture is similar to elastic bands.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Genki roll, vegetarian sharks fin and jellyfish:
The genki rolls were my favourite, I loved the crispy skin in the middle paired with refreshing cucumber and creamy mayonnaise.
As for the vegetarian sharks fin and jellyfish, I found it a bit too sweet.
