7/10 plates emptied!听Carly介绍，这间Simplylife有些菜式是不可以外卖只能堂吃。 我们一行五人点了五份两个course的午市套餐（HKD$108，一个主菜是HKD$98，加一服务费）。Simplylife – it’s not going to be a name/brand that you will be unfamiliar with if you work in Central. Maxim’s have opened this restaurant chain offering different options of dishes all around Hong Kong and all of them have ONE thing in common, the never-ending line up. How good is this place anyway? Why does everyone insist in waiting for more than 1 hour for the food here?前菜有沙拉和是日餐汤，沙拉还

听Carly介绍，这间Simplylife有些菜式是不可以外卖只能堂吃。 我们一行五人点了五份两个course的午市套餐（HKD$108，一个主菜是HKD$98，加一服务费）。Simplylife – it’s not going to be a name/brand that you will be unfamiliar with if you work in Central. Maxim’s have opened this restaurant chain offering different options of dishes all around Hong Kong and all of them have ONE thing in common, the never-ending line up. How good is this place anyway? Why does everyone insist in waiting for more than 1 hour for the food here?
前菜有沙拉和是日餐汤，沙拉还是挺新鲜的，调味还可以。下面详细陈列一下里面的元素（基本沙拉的材料）：有黄梅茄(yellow plum tomato)，红车厘茄，大片的iceberg lettuce (我们俗称「西生菜」去掉外面大片不脆的部分，剩下的嫩绿生翠的「心」)， 洋葱，柠檬汁，意大利香醋(balsamic vinegar)，黑胡椒，橄榄油，lollo rosso(红罗沙，就是微苦紫红色边的生菜)，一点点盐末，sliced red radish(红皮白肉萝卜)。
Daily soup and salad were average. Carrot soup could’ve been thicker and more flavorful as it was a bit bland, but the whole point was to dip the extremely hard/tough baguette into the soup so the farm bread would have been edible! Some people do like hard-as-stone breads but certainly not Carly.配有farm bread和牛油，Gobay和Lorling觉得还好，面包算是脆身，但其他几位就觉得太干硬，要用狠劲才能吃到！
English Big Breakfast 英式早餐传统的英式全餐包括猪肉肠、烟肉、牛奶炒蛋、焗豆、番茄、蘑菇和炕多士，炒蛋十分嫩滑，猪肉肠普普通通吧，还有健康的麦包多士——总的来说味道还是不错的，咸度和口感都有照顾到，不错！
English Big Breakfast was not bad given its premium quality of food offered on the plate. The pork sausage had this unique seasoning of herbs, pepper in it. Even though Carly would still go for Bricklane or 18grams as her top choices for all day breakfast.
Pan-fried Sea bass with Poached Egg and Potatoes, Mustard Cream Sauce香煎鲈鱼配水煮蛋、薯仔和芥末忌廉汁
这道鲈鱼获得我们一致的赞赏：在不算是fine dining的餐厅，煎得刚好的鲈鱼实在难得。放在鱼上的糖心蛋切开后，蛋液裹住鱼肉，已经令口感十分饱满，加了芥末的忌廉汁带有点点刺激味，但不过分，整体平衡掌握得很不错。
One of Carly’s favorite dish as the sea bass is often consistently cooked to its decency, well-seasoned and blends so perfectly with the mustard sauce and nicely roasted potatoes. For a HKD 108 lunch set, you definitely cannot expect anything more than this.
Parma Ham and Cherry Tomato Pizza 意大利风干火腿车厘茄薄饼薄饼相当不错，饼底薄脆，Parma Ham吧，就算不太能觉得是真的，至少看起来，火腿颜色鲜亮，吃起来舌尖上咸鲜分布均匀再配烟韧的芝士，这个价钱确实划算，难怪经常排长龙啦！推介！
Even though Café Habitu still beats Simplylife’s pizza yet it is noteworthy of the crispiness of the crust!
Handmade Linguine Carbonara 烟肉忌廉自家制扁意粉这道意粉没什么特别，本身应该浓稠的烟肉忌廉汁非常稀，而且味道很淡，好像盐放得不够一样，忌廉味也不够香。
I’ve never had such watery saucing of Carbonara in my life and this was definitely disappointing. Linguine texture was fine yet the cream sauce was too bland, watery.
Beef Burger with Bacon and Blue Cheese 蓝芝士烟肉牛肉汉堡芝士味不太重，但略嫌牛肉煎得很干。Simplylife的汉堡不见到很出色，如果排了很久的队，结果只吃到这个，我们会提意你行多几步，去PP3附近的Beef & Liberty （随后会发表食评）。
Blue Cheese flavor was not strong, feel likes the restaurant haven’t given you enough cheese on your burger. Meat patty was grilled till it’s dry. The Gang recommends you to walk a bit farther to Beef & Liberty (review to follow!) near Pacific Place 3 as their burgers are one of the best in town.
Chestnut Cake 粟子蛋糕不知道是不是蛋糕雪得太久，粟子蓉吃的时候已略嫌干身。甜就不是很甜，但好像只是外观漂亮，味道和质素就不怎么样。
Simplylife cakes always look real good with huge scoop of whipping cream on top of their fruit pies yet the taste is close to mediocre for the chestnut filling was not moist and creaming enough.
Gobay food knowledge corner:Blue Cheese（蓝纹芝士），可能很多人都觉得它很臭！Blue Cheese其实是芝士界的臭豆腐，其中特别受人追捧的是独特的口感，蓝纹芝士呈半柔软状，非常易碎和融化，尽量避免冷藏后即刻食用（如有恒温芝士房保存就更好，雪柜太低温）。蓝纹芝士搭配汉堡算是平凡的，因为它和肉糜、面包、蔬菜类都挺合得来。
