penang super abc and cendol come come!!I!

It is prudent to leave your stomach with a little bit of room for some of Penang’s famous desert or snacks – before or after a meal.

Ais kacang

The mother of all Malaysian dessert, it is also known as “ABC Ais”. Ais kacang literally translated means “Iced beans”, but it contains more than that. Ais Kacang is a mixture of shaved ice with red and brown syrup over red beans, jelly, sweet corn, “attap chi” and evaporated milk. Ice cream is an additional ingredient available upon request. Super stuff from RM1:50 per bowl.

For the best ais kacang in town (in no particular order): Hawker stall at Swatow Lane and Lorong Selamat in the afternoons.

Cendol

Cendol is a favourite desert among locals. It is easily identified: green pandan flavoured noodles in white coconut milk with brown sugar. Sweet heavenly stuff – super cheap and ultra good. Costs between RM0.80 to RM1.50 per bowl.

For the best cendol in town (in no particular order): Hawer stall at a lane off Penang Road; eating outlet at Midlands One-Stop Centre and Lorong Selamat coffee shop

Argh that cendol looks damn tasty :(
