Balls 評價 相片

This restaurant uses cheap ingredients and charge high price,and the toilet smells bad and dirty..really don’t get this restaurant!we took two meat ball dishes and one of them was not edible. No wonder there were only a few costumers during the dinner time.

After an evening out, we walked past Balls on the way home and decided to bring home some items for supper.  We ordered the Meatsballs (chicken with blue cheese) and the Stefano's Big Sub (sausage with fontina cheese). The Meatsballs was too cheesy and the Big sub was surprisingly bland.   Adult and children (teens) alike did not like either dish.  After discussing with my friends, interestingly those of us who have dined in had a great meal, while those of us who ordered takeaway did not enjoy it at all.  I am not sure what they do or dont do for takeaway, but dine in if possible.  The interior is simple, given it is only a 100 day restaurant and they have not made many changes from the previous tenants (Chez Patrick Deli), and the staff were friendly.

After our first visit to Balls, I noticed on their table they had a contest to win a dinner for two. So, I gave a submission and wow wow! I won! So, boyfriend and I came for dinner and we tried to choose things we didn't have last time.Dinner time they have a different tasting set than the brunch version.  For $248, you get two before your balls, three our balls and one all balled out.As I won the contest, boyfriend and I were given two glasses of prosecco to celebrate. We had that with our bread.Mozzarella di Buffala. This is one of the Before Our Balls selection as it was suggested by the staff. Mozzarella cheese with pesto with slices of tomato and rocket lettuce. And what a great suggestion! The mozzarella balls were so soft and light. So different than the ones I'm used to. The pesto was fresh and went perfectly with the mozzarella. But the star was definitely the mozzarella.Arancini. Another suggestion by the staff for our Before Our Balls. Little risotto balls stuffed with gooey cheese. I liked these a bit more than boyfriend as I loved how much cheese was in them. There was a dipping sauce with it and it was pretty spicy so boyfriend dunked it all as he felt it gave the risotto balls a better kick.Stefano's  Big Sub. My favorite of the ENTIRE night. This was one of the Our Balls. The bread was soft which I love. The meatballs were soaked in this wonderful rich tomato sauce and swimming in stretchy cheese.  It was like eating a pizza but in sandwich form. One of the best meatball subs in Hong Kong that is for sure. I love meatball subs and I am often disappointed every time I order one. I would probably be back for this for a lunch.Bolas Latinas. Another choice for Our Balls. Pork balls with two slices of foccacia with a VERY spicy aji panka BBQ sauce. The sauce was pretty spicy. This was ok and I think it was mostly the sauce worth noting.Ste Palle. Originally, I was all set of the fishballs as our third choice of Our Balls but just like our last visit, it was not available. Is it ever available? Has anyone had it?  So, we retried the Ste Palle. Was it due to the fact I won the contest but it seemed this one was much better than last time. It at least looked more appealing.  The pasta was wonderfully cooked. The meatballs were soft and fluffy. The sauce rich. And there was a generous shaving of Parmesan.Sweet Balls. This was our All Balled Out selection.  Cinnamon jam donuts with vanilla custard. Well, first things first. These were not donuts. I think they were more like cake balls stuffed with jam so they were a bit too doughy. I'm so picky about my donuts. But the best was the vanilla custard. Rich and sweet. I could literally drink it up. And I think boyfriend did.Right when we were thinking of where to head next, the staff then brought out two cups of ice cream with all the works! Vanilla soft serve ice cream with strawberry syrup and nuts. Crumbles and more! A really nice end to our evening and we rolled out of there so full.Food seemed better. Was it due to the fact we chose better dishes this time around? Service was also great and checked in on us continually. What a difference than last time as it made me really do want to come back before this pop up ends. At least for the sub. Really happy I won the contest and for the staff to make it a really exceptional evening.

擂沙：只pop up 100日，集合集團旗下餐廳內，各有不同風味的肉丸菜式。

此舉除了充滿gimmick外，從市場分析而言也有一定用處，實在聰明。

但遺憾這一餐的開端 Arancini 芝士飯球 ($60) 及結尾 Sweet Balls玉桂冬甩 ($50) 令我們頗為失望。

兩款炸球都同樣太乾：芝士夾心硬實不流心；冬甩口感粗糙，只有瘋狂蘸碗裡的雲尼拿醬稍為彌補口感。

幸好到了主菜，代表上回我們到訪過的Meats的Meatballs ($110)，交到功課，有足料雞肉絲，微微芝士香，質感堅挺算是不錯。

另外代表著手打意粉店Pici的Ste Palle! ($130)，牛肉香頗濃，但略嫌肉質鬆散，而且其中一顆更有未揉開的麵粉碎。

蕃茄醬本是Pici的拿手好醬，但在這裡竟然調味過咸，不過伴以超富蛋香的Tagliatelle算是僅僅過關。

阿林：全Balls宴，可惜沒有哪款特別深刻。

如真要選較喜歡的，會是Special Ball ($95)，純粹因為薯仔磨菇芝士皆為我喜愛。

配搭平凡，幸好醬汁有點佻皮，帶一陣草青味。

如把香草運用得更淋漓盡致，相信能增添火花。

Fishballs ($140) 也是不錯，店員說本地人都喜歡，吃後大概明白箇中原因。

裡頭洋溢蝦和魷魚鮮味，用料確實比一般魚蛋豐富。

要數最特別的一定是Free Balling ($85)（忘了拍照），口袋薄餅包著蔬菜和三顆Falafel Balls。

鷹嘴豆濃烈的味道並非人人合胃口，擂沙吃後瞬間爆出一句"It tastes really bad!"，我則回憶起在印度每天啃著這種味道的日子。

Well...

pop up store, 叫了几客balls ，要批评性价比不佳，肉质不是特别吸引，味道也不配如此价位，但价钱超贵我吃一球小小的ball 要差不多$50， 但味道真心真心不值。

幸好，此店在star street 只开短时间。
