Whenever I lunch there I would get the fried char kuay teow but this time I opted for something different, choosing to try their Indonesian fried rice ($4.50). It comes with a fried egg and fried crackers among other things. I like the rice for it does taste spicy and there was a lot of prawn bits in the fried rice as well. However after a while you will find that the rice does taste a little bit too salty thus making it quite hard to finish. Still it’s a big portion in my opinion. Can definitely fill one up easily.

My colleague bought the fried nian gao and yam cake also which were good. If you happen to drop by, they are the must-trys. I saw several people buying the yam cake itself. The sauces that comes with the yam cake makes it nice as well.

My view of this place is - there's always surprises. Despite having a different menu for each day, there will occasionally be special offerings like this day where the usual menu was mushroom noodle and fried beehoon, today they had fish soup bee hoon and fried nian gao. The fish soup cost $5 though, i would say its very average, maybe its a trial on whether their recipe appeals, the soup is not sweet enough and the fish meat tasted a little too fried with too much flour. The nian gao cost $1 an

Its hard to find seats in the stall. Not only its limited but you have alot of people lining up having their food being ordered. I feel like everyone has to rush eating not what i would enjoy. So i enjoyed a bowl of laksa, dont think there was any cockles inside but i know there's 3 prawns and 1 half boiled egg. The noodles were generous and I enjoyed the gravy. The good thing about this laksa is that... the whole meal doesn't give you the overly full feeling.

This cafe at Far East Plaza is very small so be prepared to squeeze and share tables with other patrons. However their food is cheap and tastes decent so for a quick lunch you can try here. I had their Laksa and it was surprisingly very tasty. The taste was not too overwhelming of coconut and the spice level was just nice for someone like me who can't take too spicy food. There isn't a lot of ingredients or cockles but it was quite filling.

Decided (or more like forced) to go for the healthier lunch option as I was unwell, I opted for the Mee Hoon Kuay with soup. The soup is clear but holds enough flavour to make it quite nice. I didn't fancy the kway as they were a tad too soft but then better than uncooked ones. They have a seafood option and a minced meat option. I had the minced meat choice, and they added veggies and ikan bilis. Simple, cheap and decent food.

I went to Greenview for Laksa as I was craving for Laksa. First thought of my mind was going to Greenview. They serve daily different dishes and dessert which you get to pick. This food place is always crowded, located at a corner in Far East Plaza and you have to wait for a while to get a seat. The Laksa is really good in my opinion. I really like the fragrant and soup of the Laksa. I will go back to have the Laksa again.

Sometimes, a simple lunch is the best kind. Had fishball noodle at this small little place at Far East Plaza. This place is very small so do expect to rub elbows with other patrons. The fishball is very nice! It's springy and light and doesn't taste "fishy" at all. The noodles are cooked well and mixed with some vegetables and bittergourd, you have yourself a pretty healthy and cheap lunch ($3.50)!

As I had a craving to eat fried prawn mee, hence I decided to have my dinner at Greenview cafe. For $4.50, it came with 2 prawns and the portion was rather huge in size and it indeed made me very full after my meal. However I was very disappointed that their fried prawn mee tasted bland and tasteless. It simply does not have the taste or smell of a normal fried prawn mee. I did not enjoy my meal at all.

As I had a craving for Beef Hor Fun, I decided to stop by Greenview Cafe for a quick dinner before heading back to office to do some overtime work. The cafe is located at a corner of Far East Plaza. It is a very plain and simple looking cafe with little decoration. Although the cafe has 2 outlets, but both outlets are small and can only accommodate a maximum of 7 tables each or lesser. The plate of Beef Hor Fun cost me $5 and my Coke soft drink cost $1.40. In total my dinner cost $6.40. Here's

The Beef Hor Fun was prepared well by the chef. It's a nice fusion of the guo tiao hor fun together with the Hor Fun gravy and the beef. Each tasted equally nice. The guo tiao hor fun has a distinct nice wok smell to it. The gravy tasted superb and wasn't that salty. Each slice of beef was evenly cooked and tasted great. Overall, I had a pleasant dining experience eating the delicious Beef Hor Fun and I had a can of Coke to go along with.

What I don't really like is the vegetables. Some of it tasted slightly raw and I don't like to eat raw vegetables. Perhaps the chef didn't want to overcook the vegetables so that he can preserve the goodness that are found in the vegetables but personally I don't like the slightly raw taste. Also it will be better if they can give more guo tiao hor fun as I felt the portion was slightly little and not filling for my stomach.

I noticed that each table has separate container to contain the green chili, red chili, chili sauce. However all the 3 containers are left exposed to the surrounding and there were no cover on each container. I felt that it is not that hygienic to leave the chili exposed to the surrounding. I would suggest or recommend the cafe owners to place a cover on each of the container so that the chili won't be exposed to the surrounding air.

I would definitely return to Greenview Cafe to eat again. On a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 as mediocre and 10 as very yummy, I would give the overall dining experience as a rating of 8 and would highly recommend my friends to try out their food as it's delicious and the price is reasonable.

Green View Cafe is one of my past lunch places when I was still working in town. I try brought my friends to Green View Cafe to try some of their nice dishes! Thursday - pig intestine soup! However, its sold out! SAD. In the end, I ordered handmade noodles ($4) while my two friends ordered seafood horfun ($4.50) and minced meat mee sua ($4). The serving was generous and the price was reasonable in town area. Do come here for your lunch or dinner if you wanna have some cheap and really nice food

This is my 3rd visit to Green View at Far East Plaza for lunch.
Have to be early if you want to have lunch here. Limited seating.
Decided to try their Salted Fish Fried Rice.
Cost. $4.00. G?uess this the price for all toher stall at Far East Plaza that is selling this type of fried rice.
My order came fast. 10min waiting time.
The protion don't really look much.
But when you start to eat.
You can taste the salted fish. Very crispy salted fish. They are very kind in their protion of salted fish given by them. Meaning there is alot of fried salted fish inside.
The rice they fried is not sticky or hard.
The only things that I sad id that the salted fried rice only got salted fish, egg and rice. that all in their ingredient.
Simple to cook ??

Hi, All.. My second review for this place.
Today lunch special is Chicken Chop with noodle or rice.
I order the chicken chop with rice.
Seating is limited so you will need to come early before lunch if you want to have good seating area.
Come the food.

You expected the meal will come with a piece of chicken chop and rice.
But the meal come, never expected to see that they add some veg and sweet & sour sauce on it.
Taste nice as the chicken chop is crispy.
Overall ; Will go for lunch again. And to come in early to have seating...........
