晨早十點半，很想食拉麵，依稀記得金鐘太古廣場有供應，馬上驅車前往。 湯底薄薄的，不太鹹，夠熱。配料不多，三數塊叉燒、昆布、半隻熟蛋，還有拉麵碗裡不多見的醃蘿蔔。叉燒偏瘦，但非常軟腍。 麵底比較幼，雖不掛湯，但很夠味，莫非麵底有調味？有道求仁得仁為之幸福，我晨早想吃拉麵，熱乎乎地吃到了，你説是不是很幸福呢？

Sometimes lunch dates are really random. A friend of mine got a sudden appointment in Admiralty and coincidently I wasn’t planning to go elsewhere for lunch. I reached Thai Basil to get seats before his arrival but there were around 5 tables before me. Not being able to afford extra queueing time, he suggested switching to the fast food place right next to Thai Basil – Café MET.I didn’t realize this is a NEW restaurant as it looks similar all the time. After having a glimpse on openrice, I realized that the name changed!Adopting similar concepts in New York City and Chicago, Café MET apparently targets at those who looks for a quick lunch in warm, high energy surroundings. There are mainly two counters – a noodle bar and a salad bar. The thing in common is that food served in both bars is made-to-order. Another minor part is readily made sandwiches.1) Noodle barYou may get your personal blend of noodles with varying amount of toppings - 1 or 2 items at $75, 3 items at $85, 4 items at $95, and $12 extra for any additional ones. My friend chose 3 toppings.2) Salad BarBasically there are two kinds of salad base to choose from - mesclun mix or crisp romaine. Then the price varies with the amount of toppings chosen - 3, being the basic, at $70, 4 at $80 and 5 at $90. I chose 3 toppings ($70) plus half an avocado (+$18). The staff immediately helped me mix all the ingredients in a big alumnium bowl.3) Sandwiches & othersIn case you are not in the mood of eating much, grabbing sandwiches and soft drinks may be a good choice.My dishnce it was done, the staff put my dish on the tray and I queued for the cashier.Half an avocado wasn't that big, in fact not really justifying the $18 cost. It was out of my impulse to add avocado only. Romain leaves were fresh and really crispy.My friend's noodle :Not sure if it tastes good, as he only expressed "hmmm ok la" (apparently chinglish!)In general, Cafe MET is a place where you can grab fast and custom-made food. Quality of salad and noodles are OK but not really amazing. It will be my alternative if queues are too long to wait for in other restaurants in the Pacific Place.

As usual the staff here are rude and carefree.I came here for the S'mores which was crushed peanuts, chocolate chips and marshmallows in a toast.The S'mores was a bit too sweet for my liking and there wasn't enough marshmallows in it.The toast that they used was not fresh because the texture was dry, hard and chewy.
