In Hong Kong, eating Kushikatsu or Kushiage (大阪串カツ) only started as a movement a few years ago, started by “Jan Jan” Wanchai, although in recent years when “Hidden” suddenly switched from an Omurice specialty shop into also a Kushikatsu shop, and decided to open until really late for supper, it became a gradual big hit with foodies who were previously unfamiliar with the concept from Kansai !“JunG39” is the 3rd late comer into the Kushikatsu scene.

“JunG39” is the 3rd late comer into the Kushikatsu scene. Run by Japanese Chefs, and located inside the same building as “Kozy Okonomiyaki” , it also opens until the late wee hours. What separates here from the competitors, is that if you have had Kushikatsu in Japan before it is usually just 1/3rd the price of experiencing this in Hong Kong side. Well guess what Good news there is? This relatively still undiscovered place was almost as affordably cheap as is in Osaka itself. Surely you don’t want to break the bank for suppers every week?
The Wagyu Beef Carpaccio was surprisingly very marbled yet beefy, in fact one of the best we have had recently & only HKD $118, am ultimate bargain. To complement that, we ordered also a (土手焼き) Miso Stewed Beef Tendons $38, which is also highly popular in 屋台 settings in Japan.
The other Fried skewers were also some decent. I would say Hidden is more upper end in concept, but here it is simply more affordable... even in Japan there is a distinct hierarchy between different Kushikatsu shops, so anyone who compares them side by side is prob ending up embarrassing both sides of owners .. We ordered many rounds & skewers this night - and as always I would recommend the Herring Roe Kombu (子持ち昆布) $48, also the Fried Runny Egg in Pork Belly (日本産卵豚バラ) $30 only!
Don’t forget to order the Monkfish Liver (あん肝) which was only HKD $48. To finish off, usually people order a G39 Curry Rice $78 to share, the curry spice was surprisingly fragrant so it wasn’t just a DAISO curry roux block to brush off as another finishing carb rice dish - no wonder they put they name after it as a Signature!
We also wanted to order the Fried Red Ginger (紅ショウガ), an item which is almost always ordered to balance the fried items but unfortunately it was sold out for this visit... but we will be back soon anyway. Just save some for me next round
