Dover sole, Almond and I planned to have lunch together and Dover sole suggested pho, and pho tai seems to be the right place for lunchie. Was gonna introduce Dover sole to a friend of mine, Raddish, however Raddish was busy in some conference today and so he could not make it to our lunchie. Nevermind. A numerous time when I walked pass this shop there was a long queue at the door, luckily, it did not seem to have any queue at all today! I'm not so sure if there's anything to do with the gloomy weather lately or the approaching armageddon. No matter, we marched into the shop happily and the waitresses brought us to our seats. The shop was pretty small on the ground floor (apparently there was a second floor), our seats were right behind the cashier, so it was very near to the entrance. We ordered three sets of "C", which only cost us $57 each (no service charge), very reasonable I would say. It comes with one snack, one main course and one drink. Almond ordered sliced pork with vietnamese noodles (cold) and papaya saladShe said it was good. (No further comments provided before the submission deadline)(Personally I don't really like the presentation of the papaya salad, to me, it looked like some random ingredients prepared by the prep chef and sent out without the executive chef approving - unfinished)Dover sole had Pho (Beef Hor Fan w/ soup) for her main, and fried pork chop for the snackThe pho had a generous portion of semi-cooked beef, Dov said the soup temperature was just right to cook the raw beef.Although the fried pork chop was a bit cold, it was tender. Dov then intellegently warmed the pork in her pho soup and she said it was okay.The pho came with some bean sprouts and lemon leaves. Nice, but not so nice when I tried to take some of those from that huge plate for my vietnamese noodles cos that waitress said it wasn't for us with vietnamese noodles, but only for pho!! Almond and I was a bit upset by her theory and I almost refused to continue with my lunch, but I was hungry, fine.I had pork chop with vietnamese noodles (cold) and spring rollsThe noodles was fine, I mean it couldn't go wrong actually (otherwise it'd be really unfortunate), with a bit of chopped spring onions, chopped deep fried garlic, chopped raddish and fish sauce, it was quite refreshing. The spring rolls were brilliant and I think it just came out piping hot from the oil. Crispy and hot!For drinks we ordered two salty 07 and a lime soda.Salty 07 was not salty enough, I think it is to do with the preserved kumquats. It was average.Food was generally good and we had a happy lunchie, despite the narrow seats and the bean sprouts being taken away, for just $57 we all thought it was a really good bargain. For other places nearby serving the exact combo might cost you a hundred. (check out the other review of mine)so... 文ey for valueness: 9/10

和媽媽到港島區閑逛到中午時份, 我們到中環<<Pho Tai>>吃越南菜雞絲撈檬超大碗, 大量雞絲加上青瓜, 紅蘿蔔絲和花生碎配上橙紅色的泰式汁, 辣辣地很開胃生牛肉金邊河這碗是媽媽點的, 碗超大, 湯超多, 但牛肉和金邊粉就不多味道亦實在普通不過, 但勝在有得DIY另上的青檸和芽菜, 要幾多撈幾多, 配合個人口味嘛

今天放假到中環辦些事及順便逛一逛，到午飯便選擇呢間 Pho Tai。如我冇記錯，從多年前幫襯，中環行人電梯呢間係第一間店舖，嗰時我覺得呢間越南食店嘅食物水準好掂，係中環區來說價錢亦算合理，差不多一年冇幫襯，不知水準如何？因我不太喜好牛肉，我便拼了呢個套餐 : 香茅豬扒飯＋上湯時菜跟一杯蓮花茶香茅豬扒飯 - 不知是否物價及租金高漲，呢塊豬扒點解縮左水，我都唔夠食，最後都要加黑醬油嚟送飯，男生一定唔夠喉。言歸正傳講味道，豬扒點上隨飯付上的甜酸汁及黑醬油，再加淋上豬扒嘅炸香蒜葱油，仍然保持咁好味道，不過相比以前的水準就始終失色得多，因以前嘅炸豥扒帶有點肥肉，所以食落帶有點甘香及嫩滑，現有的豬扒感覺有啲嚡但仍可接受。 蓮花茶 - 冇玫瑰花或薰衣草等花味咁濃，祇是淡淡然的感覺，係唔想飲甜飲的另一種選擇。

第一次寫食評，請見諒！第一次去lee間食下午茶，叫左個生牛肉河，味道一般！得兩舊手指頭大小既牛肉碎，我感覺係將碎頭碎尾部份俾我地。我另願加少少錢好過俾咁既質素！店員態度惡劣，好似阻住佢地傾計，見有客人進來都𣎴會招呼，全部企係度傾計！仲有𣎴友善眼光。一定不會再有下一次！

Lunched today - chicken noodles with lemon tea. Food is average. But service is poor. Asked for a cup of water many times, but the watresses just ignored and gave you a long face. I would go there more if the restaurant would give me a cup of water. Now with the poor service this restaurant is ranked as my last choice (The restarant owner should note: Poor service can drive away business!!).
