After my satisfying lunch, my lunch companion mentioned a dessert stall here. She said she gave up waiting the other time because of the extremely long queue. Sounds good, it is always safe to follow the crowd. Then, we approached the stall and there wasn’t a queue at that moment, stall owner was friendly smiling to us as we were guessing for their gigantic mangos displaying at their stall ~ they were fake! While I was browsing for my dessert, there were patrons coming and queue started.I ha
I have chendol today and my friend has simple sweet potato soup. Forget about the calorie, chendol is the second best to ice kacang for my interpretation and preference. Actually I like red ruby more, they have it in the menu but I couldn’t see it in the stall, so I didn’t order.
First sight of the chendol ~ wow, nice! It is covered with a thick layer of gula melaka, ice is shaved to really fine, it almost resembles snow ice, I give it 3 thumbs up! Red beans is cooked to soft and yet in whole piece, it takes technique and experience to boil it till this stage, this way it contains full red bean nutty flavour, otherwise the flavour is gone into water.
For me, the gula melaka is overcooked today, however it is really thick, it has a trace of burnt aroma. It isn’t a draw though as the rest of the ingredients are so good. It is the best chendol I have taste so far. I would definitely come back in trying their other desserts. Worth the trip for a good dessert!
