Review: Restoran Green View

**Non-Halal**

As a comparison with the fresh water prawn noodles at Soo Kee, let's check this favourite place of ours to have the same type of noodles but tastes tonnes better. This place, Restoran Green View, does not need much introduction as it's very popular indeed in Petaling Jaya. Located near the famous Rothman's roundabout, it's very easy to access. Parking in the evening is a breeze... psssttt you can park at Menara Merais for free!

As we have this dinner sometime back, it's hard to recall what is the name of this pork ribs dish (RM23.00). It came whole but luckily it was stewed until so tender that the meat literally falls off its bones. Tasted good and we lapped up the gravy with deep fried mantous (dumplings, RM4.00 a loaf and we have 2).

Next came a mediocre stir-fried fish slices with ginger and spring onion (RM25.00) that is nothing much to shout about.

We liked the stir-fried romaine lettuce with preserved beancurd (foo yue RM15.00) though with enough wok hei (breath of a wok) to play around with the tasty foo yue that thickly coats the vegetables.

Then came the 'piece de resistance' - fresh water prawns noodles (sang har meen RM70.00). If not mistaken we asked for 3 large prawns to be shared by 5 adults. Someone was lucky enough to have one whole prawn haha... well everyone was worried about their cholesterol level! Mei Yen, see these prawns... huge or not??? :p

The eggy gravy enveloped the crispy deep fried fresh noodles, not too starchy... just right I would say. Ohhh taste sooooo soooo good! We also like their Kong Nam Meen, also in similar eggy gravy but have loads of vegetables on it. Yum yum!

All the dishes above for 5 adults without any rice, a pot of Chinese tea (RM7.20), bucket of ice (RM1.50) costed RM157.19 inclusive of 5% Government Tax.

  2. The Sang Har Meen is totally gorgeous, they are still one of the best but I can't seem to find the other one under an attap roof with one tree sticking out. I think they are in Pudu or near Petaling Street.

    Is it me or do you find Green View expensive? Having said that - the prawn noodles have triggered the "lau hau sui" action in my mouth :p

  3. This place is very near to my parents' place. Haven't been there for quite a while though. One of these days, must have their noodle again. I remember once, their stash of mud crabs was fantastic, so BIG! Must have been right smack in the middle of crab season.

    Speaking of foo yue, I managed to find this small Chinese grocery store that sells cooking wine and LKK soy & oyster sauce (don't have to ask people to bring over for me anymore!!). And I found the most aromatic, tasty foo yue I have ever tasted!! It wasn't overly salty, and soaking in a fiery chilly oil, it was soooo savoury good with white porridge! Must stiryfry with lettuce too one day.
