One would think that the number of expats roaming around HK would also mean the late night kebab…read morecraze has taken over in Kowloon. Yet still HK Style Cafes, McDonalds and other infamous street side eateries to maintain their stronghold for the hungry locals wandering during the wee hours. New Istanbul is a 24 hour spot, specializing in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern fare and certified Halal. It is mainly empty at this spot, for obvious reasons to anyone who dines here. The menu is massive for HK standards, perhaps even for Turkish / Halal places in general. Their meat platters from their rotating spits are definitely plentiful, typically served with rice, salads, and fries. Their chicken doner ($70) was just chunks of dry pieces that resembled shawarma. The Kofte ($88) was filling, but I've definitely had better in from other establishments and the same applies with the Mixed Doner ($98), which was just disappointing. I figured going with light bites such as Falafel ($58) and Spicy Hummus ($48) would resetore some faith in misaligned execution but I was wrong. Both were downright atrocious. There was a pool of oil drowning the hummus and the falafel was overfried, resembling a hockey puck. I was also surprised at the subpar pizza, also the pide and lahmacun. I still haven't found anything suitable on the menu yet. Perhaps their desserts? (i.e. sutlac?) They do take credit cards here and the mainly Nepalese staff is super friendly. Where the food fails, they shine. But that's the only reason I can muster 2 stars.

The only thing I ate here was the falafel, which I was glad to see offered; unfortunately, they…read morewere pretty bad. And at the time, they seemed to me like the most appetizing thing offered on the menu. I also had a canned beer to drink. The menu, btw, is on a huge banner-like tarp covering the wall, which was nice because it was convenient and also probably covered an area nobody wants to look at while eating. The seating area runs along one side of the place. It's apparently open 24 hours, or used to be; if I recall correctly, I was there around 4 in the morning. The woman behind the counter who took my order seemed friendly enough. I might've added on another .5 star for that. It's a tiny restaurant, and I did like the ambience of the place, so I'm rather torn between giving it 2 stars or 3. But the falafel were just too poor. When done at least adequately, they're delightfully crispy. These were nowhere near crispy, they were just fat little fingers of mush. Sad. The sauces in squeeze bottles, of which there are a variety that one can freely help themselves to, improved the falafel a bit, but only barely.
