Smokey joe's (已結業)

和友人為肥雞啤酒而來，大概是平日的關係，餐廳不是太多人。我們二人獲安排坐4人枱，冷氣不太凍，坐得舒適，燈光帶黃，裝修帶點raw的工業風感覺。啤哂先來，Yeastie Boy Golden Perch Golder Ale ($71)倒出來好香，是honey的味道，也帶有陣果香，入口甘香，有層次。朋友說after taste帶honey 甜味。肥雞IPA ($68)，比Golden Ale苦多了，入口帶香草味，層次上比不上Golden Ale。接著是，1) Granny's Southern Chopped Salad ($98)- 可以不吃，味道帶膠味。2) Potato Wedges ($48)- 強烈推介，感覺就是避風塘薯角，下了大量炸香蒜粒調味。3) Cheese Burger ($128)- 麵包香甜鬆軟， 裏面的牛肉恰到好處，沒有over cooked 或under cooked，切一半，可見牛肉相當濕潤，並帶微粉紅。唯一不足是芝士太輕手，話明是Cheese burger，芝士只得薄薄一塊，直頭一口咬下去，完全感覺不到有芝士味，只有牛肉味。

走了一大段路，專程來到伊利近街，只是為了一嘗Smokey Joe's。午市時間人不算多，小店充滿美式風格。小小的吧枱，還有播放美式足球比賽的兩部電視，相信放工時間頗受歡迎。星期2的晚市主菜加＄1有多一個主菜，相當抵食。午市套餐可選1 Main＋1/2 Sides，主菜有4款不同的漢堡包，Side則有沙律，薯角等等。除了套餐，當然不可不點Smokey Joe's最著名的Baby back ribs。於是，一行4人點了兩個套餐和一份肋骨。Iced tea店員替我們把兩杯冰茶放成4杯，非常熱心。果然是Smokey，連檸檬也烤過。Baby back ribs小份只有4條，剛好夠分。沒有想像中香，勝在做到骨肉分離的效果，肉質不嚡，但也不夠腍。醬汁味道濃郁，稠稠的，塗滿肋骨，幾入味。Cheese burger店員應我們要求把它分成4份。漢堡十分厚，牛肉味幾香，肉質鬆嫩。可是，整體偏乾，自己加上大量spicy hot sauce增加濕潤度，帶辣的汁幾惹味。Pulled pork sandwichSandwich和burger都是一樣。豬肉幾入味，但偏嚡，加上很乾，口感普通。Mac n cheese邪

老土講一句，遇上對的人，情人節每天都過。每逢有什麼節日紀念日，我們都會為大家預備一些小心意，不是在意那禮物的價值，而是想提醒大家能擁有著彼此是多麼的幸運。不想另一半花費太多，事先已講明不要去一些要吃情人節套餐的餐廳，免得被人劏得一頸血，就隨便在蘇豪找間店作為落腳點，可惜結果不甚滿意。沿著中環扶手電梯一直上，差不多上到堅道前便抵達；由於餐牌選擇不多，和男友很快便能決定點些什麼，亦見是喜慶日子要大吃特吃！Granny's Salad $98 (L)不知道大和小的份量有多大差別，二人分吃一份大的也不覺為難。黑醋醬汁略嫌酸了一點，但勝在材料新鮮，是我們最快清碟的一道。Fried Chicken Wings $58一客五隻的雞翼有原味、辣味和菠蘿味三款選擇，選了外面少見的菠蘿味嚐嚐。雞翼尚算大隻，嗅起上來有點香甜的味道，一層薄薄的醬汁輕封著表面，吃下居然有吃鹹味鳳梨酥／蘋果批的感覺，兩者味道算不上很融合但亦不會古怪，至後段辣味才湧現，是不錯的送酒小吃。Baby Back Ribs $138 (L)一份大的有七支骨，每一支骨都有大半隻手掌般長，比我想像中多。豬仔骨是有一種獨特的煙燻味道，但肉質不夠

Was interested in some pulled pork tonight, so decided to give Smokey joe a try.It's a Tue night so we got the "fat Tue" promotion - with $250 you got 2 sandwiches (pork/beef/chicken) plus 2 draft beer. We picked pulled pork and pulled beef brisket.The 2 sandwiches were served real quick. Time to be a carnivore.At first sight, I saw a huge pile of meat on a bun. It looked good.Things go downhill however upon the first bite. The meat was extremely dry. Yes, both the beef brisket and the pork. It

My sister is really into pulled pork, so when I discovered Smokey Joe's when I was in the area the other day, I knew I'd have to go with her!  I went with my sister before she had to work and we brought along our grandma who loves ribs! The setting was quite open. It had a door, but you didn't need a door to get in? Haha.. There were a few TVs showing sports, which made it feel like a chill place. The Menu was on the wall, which was easy to see. Service was good. The staff was polite and noticed

Although I am a Brit, I love American food as well.I got my American cravings from having Cajun prawns and Southern fried chicken in the UK.Tried this new joint which is going to be a competitor of 85 South.Personally I liked the food but I am looking forward to mjhk's review because he is an expert on Southern food.Went on the wrong night because there are no special deals on Monday so I just got the combo which has a drink, sandwich and a side.As I was greedy, I ordered an extra side as well,

Eclipse Group has new opening recently in Soho Gourmet area, still in their signature U.S. style, this time what they are playing is Southern American BBQ and craft beers. Having a causal walk in Soho area, you will be so surprised by the fast switching of restos there, and this sharp orange color restaurant is just there, with a complete opening bar design, typical bar/pub design; I love the way to enter into the restaurant directly through the wall area instead of door (is that called 'side-do

蘇豪上的餐廳貨如輪轉，新舊不斷交替，像今次的最新成員，Smokey Joe's，前身是同集團的泰國菜，位置在新開的Linguini Fini對面。走美食快餐路線，但絕非求其，只是隨便賣熱狗，漢堡包，啤酒便算。全場只賣十多款手工啤酒，甚麼喜力，嘉士伯的大路貨色，你想喝的話，可以去附近的便利店。手工啤酒越來越受重視，今天賣手工啤酒的地方，亦越來越多。首先試這一瓶來自英格蘭西南部，Cornwall的Korev，用Cornwall種植的大麥釀製，入口先苦，後甜，是那種帶點焦糖，蜜糖的味道。前菜三款之中，最喜歡是炸酸瓜Fried Pickle，外表的一層薄薄的黃金聖衣，包著的酸瓜，依然酸甜多汁！Smoked Pulled Organic Chicken Sandwich，有機雞肉不是一塊塊，而是撕開一條條，鮮嫩的雞肉，每一口都是濃郁，芳香的煙燻味。麵包質感鬆軟中帶有彈性，絕非連鎖快餐店可比的水準。負責人說：（餐廳有部煙燻機，在美國訂做。）主菜BBQ Baby Back Ribs，濃甜的醬汁，與煙燻味，惹味得連骨頭也啜得乾乾淨淨。甜品的Salted Caramel Vanilla Crunch C
