From this OpenRice.com review of Shakey's Pizza Restaurant:
Conclusion: If you have spent two years in Arkansas, and live in the Mid-Levels and never (ever) go to Mongkok, you're not local. Deal with it.Had my first ever meal in the Far Dark Side with my boyfriend last week. Restaurants in the New Territories are supposed to be like, dirty and shxt, right But Shakey’s was actually clean (yay!). Maybe cos it’s American Like my boyfriend : ) The food was not bad, but it was like, hm...unauthentic Inauthentic Ingenuous Know what I mean Like it was adjusted for local tastes As in local local By the way, I’m Chinese (my boyfriend’s whtie: )), but I’m not really local, cos I spent two years in Arkansas. Plus I live in the mid-levels and I NEVER go to Mongkok.
P.S. - Before anyone asks, no I wasn't looking up reviews of Shakey's Pizza. Brooklynexpat directed me to the site. He says their pizza is not authentic, NY-style unlike Paisano's.
