New Straits Times - Malaysia News OnlineOriginally Posted by NST online
It's yummy. It's little green jellylike strands and topped with shaved ice, coconut milk and thick sweet fragrant palm sugar. Red beans, pieces of glutinous rice, grass jelly and shaved ice are optional additions. There are many incarnations depending on where you are in Malaysia.
In Melaka : Durian Cendul, Glutinous Rice Cendul
In Penang : Cendul with mix local fruits, Cendul with Ice-Cream
In Kedah : Cendul
It is a kin of the Ice-Kacang or ABC which is more eleborate.
So which Cendol is the best of the Best? You decide. If you are visiting Melaka, try it out. It will make you a fan of it. Drop by Penang for the Cendol which tourist rave about and come by the tour bus loads. Standing in an alley, oblivious to the traffic, slurping down this delicious dessert is a sight to watch. If you are ever there, please do give way to the car, sometimes your behind can be blocking its way.
theBat$ likes Cendol Durian...mmmmm but Penang Cendul ok too!
p/s chendul, chendol, cendul, cendol or cendoi... as it is pronouced by local penangites means the same thing. All good!
