I was really excited when Joe's Steam Rice Roll opened in Brooklyn, so I stopped by on a Saturday morning to try it. I ordered the Phoebe Special and the Chinese crepe. The Phoebe roll is supposed to come with BBQ pork, shrimp, and egg, and the crepe has pork floss, egg, spicy mayo, lettuce, and cilantro.
When I got my order, I was a little disappointed. As I started eating, I realized I might not have gotten the right roll. I ordered the Phoebe Special because I like the combo of shrimp and BBQ pork, but mine came with hot dog instead. There was baby dried shrimp, eggs and hot dog. No pork, so I'm guessing there was a mix up, or the hotdog was supposed to be pork??The rice roll itself was very thin and soft, it melts in your mouth, but something about it felt like it was missing. They do give a big portion though, which is nice.
The Chinese crepe really surprised me. The first bite was packed with flavor. It's a bit oily, but so good that I didn't mind at all. I usually don't eat oily food in the morning, but I would definitely order that again.
