越南牛肉粉專門店 (Closed)

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 g

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!!).

相約同事吃飯，大家都未試過這食肆，於是今天來這裡一試。套餐有三種，A餐$42 / B餐$46 / C餐$56，我要了最簡單的A餐，即是主食加一杯飲品。雞絲撈檬($42)：份量很多，十分大碗。配料有雞絲、青瓜絲、甘筍絲、椰菜絲和花生碎，排放得十分整齊。芽菜是另外上的，多少隨意夾，而且新鮮爽脆。酸汁是用碗另上的，酸度適中，略嫌香味不夠。蓮花茶：有點像中式茶，但帶點淡淡的花香味，清淡的味道很不錯。食物味道不錯，唯地方狹小，坐得不舒服。店員「攝入」枱椅間拿食物或收拾碗筷時，經常踫到我們，感覺很不舒服。這裡只宜quick lunch，不宜久坐。

星期六收工，原本打算一支公搵飯食，但同事突然問一唔一齊食晏，有無興趣食越南嘢，都無所謂嘅，係咁就去咗幫襯越南牛肉河專門店Pho Tai。雖然係星期六，唔係平時嘅中環，都一齊幾多人，我哋都要等咗一陣先攝到兩個位，雖則有位，但地方淺窄，真係坐得幾逼，郁吓身都驚頂親人嗰隻。因此，我哋就快快手叫嘢。午餐分A、B、C，午餐A賣$38，B就賣$42，可以揀嘅嘢食一樣，係餐飲唔同，前者只係一般嘅港式飲品（凍飲同價），而後者就可以揀$20以下嘅越式特飲；至於C賣$52，除可揀$20以下嘅越式特飲之外，仲多一份越式小食。（P.S.原來已加價，依家A、B、C午餐分別係$42、$46、$56，每個上調咗$4。）越式生牛肉河．越南凍咖啡同事覺得有啲「掠水」，因為碗大湯多牛肉少，望落又真係碗就大大，湯就載到滿，河粉同牛肉就唔多。牛肉切得好薄好薄，雖然話生牛肉，嚟到都半生熟，夾兩箸就食晒。河粉比廣東式纖幼，同事話食落又幾滑溜。靈魂在於湯底，佢話不過不失，因為頗為清甜，但係唔夠濃郁。而杯越南凍咖啡，係齋啡嚟，同事嘅意見係啡味濃，唔澀，都OK囉！香茅牛肉撈濛．熱奶茶我碗撈濛睇落抵食啲啫，無湯無汁，香茅牛肉、濛粉，加埋

很失望很失望。点了个牛河，汤底居然略带酱油色！！！ 而且味道不正！！ 正宗越南河粉汤底很清亮，再没有心情尝下去。和在越南时吃的正宗河粉差别太大了。但是越南春卷还不错，算是弥补了些。

「Pho」是越南話「河粉」的意思。近年越南牛河專門店多得如雨後春筍；本少爺覺得，湯底乃一碗美味牛河的靈魂所在。簡單來說，湯底要濃有牛骨香，生牛肉夠滑，河粉要是扁身類似粿條，帶爽口，加上自己喜歡的椒絲、青檸汁、芽菜、香草等。混合了香草的湯底，散發獨特幽香，配上幼滑河粉、鮮嫩牛肉，滋味的確令人難以抗拒。近日試了中環威靈頓街的「Pho Tai」越南牛河專門店，值得推薦！先附上一碟香草，包括：- 鵝帝：有「鬼佬芫荽」之稱，甜甜的味道，帶點甘涼- 金不換：味道複雜帶獨特香味- 芽菜：令口感爽脆本少爺吃越南牛河的吃法：1 先趁熱呷一口湯，試其鮮味2 拌勻各式香料再呷湯，香味會完全不同3 在匙羹內加點辣醬，用來蘸半生熟牛肉吃4 將辣椒粒加入湯內，再榨大量青檸汁，拌勻湯底後食粉大家可以參考一下！

來到越南餐廳，其中一個常吃的食品是香茅豬扒。今次突然看到有香茅牛肉，是之前未見過，更是未試過的，於是便大膽一試了。單看外表有點怪，因為牛肉很黑，不知是否煮過火的現象，但吃下去後才知道火喉不錯。有很香的香茅味，牛味也足。原來這樣的配合也是不錯的。

Had a quick lunch at Pho Tai in Central with my wife. We ordered lemongrass pork (very disappointing, greasy and only a very very slight lemon grass flavour) and a bowl of Pho (very average with "strange" texture beef tendon/brisket)Service was poor, even for a hole in the wall joint. The only redeeming feature was the mint lemon soda. Nice fresh mint.. We wouldn't go back. There are multiple other places to get a quick vietnamese food hit. Pho Tai, doesn't satisfy.

Lunch Set is served from 2-6pm. We arrived at 5:50pm so they gave us the lunch menu. Had the cold vermicelli and pork. The sauce was sweet. The vegetables were fresh and it was a nice mix of the two. The paper rolls that came with it were also yummy. I have to say though, after the meal, I was still hungry, but for $32, you can afford to get something else. My husband had the beef with noodles in soup. A little too much pepper for our taste, but still edible. It came with fried spring r

每次行過門口都會見到有不少人在排隊，真的很想試試為甚麼會這樣受歡迎。今天因為工作而遲了放午膳，便可以和同事一齊嘗試了。一進內便有看見頗特別的擺設，是之前意想不到的。因為從外面看認為是一個細小而簡單的餐廳，但進內一看便知道雖然是細，但仍在裝修上花了點心思。點了一個最常會吃的香茅豬扒撈檬。賣相不錯。清清的青瓜絲，配以花生粒。當然不少得的就是香茅豬扒了。不會太肥，但又不會韌。鬆鬆軟軟的，但又不會吃到有鬆肉粉的味道，真的很好。加上清涼的檬粉及酸汁。雖然近日又轉涼了一點，但這種透心的美味感真的要一讚。

本來想去攞花街食Pizza，但係碰巧員工聖誕Party，惟有在附近搵食。都係隨意選一間醫肚。在此店點了其招牌菜生牛肉湯河，套餐價$40連一杯飲品。湯河只可用不過不失，平平無奇來形容。飲品選了青檸梳打，用原罐玉泉梳打上枱，亦沒有糖水，感覺怪怪的。

There are 2 floors for this restaurant and usually the wait during lunch time is not too bad. About 5 to 10 minutes wait. The service is only average since it usually gets super hectic during weekday lunch time.Mainly mixed vermicelli dishes or pho dishes. They are all of decent quality. The portion's just right for OL but maybe a tad small for guys.One gross thing is that the raw bean sprouts that they provide, they just recycle..i.e. they just carry that bean sprouts/herbs dish from one table
