MANGO ICE KACANG

"Ice Kacang" for those unfamiliar with this stuff, it is a favorite desert popular in Malaysia and Singapore, though not exclusive to these countries, (in the neigboring country like the Philippines, their version of Ice Kacang is localy known as Halo Halo). Ice Kacang is sweet-tasting and is primarily ice served with sweet flavoured syrup and jelly. In Kuala Lumpur it is popularly known in the Bahasa as "air batu campur" or ABC for short..

Personally i'd consider ice kachang the inovarion of the western snow cone ;) ... the wor kacang by the way is a malay word for Bean... having given a brief on what it is all about.. let me tell you about the heavenly Mango Ice Kacang i've had recently. My previous post about Rojak Pengatin was just a prelude to this...well the best way to end a meal is having a good desert. After having feasted on durians d24's in Kepong Bharu..and not forget to mention the rojak.... on the way back to KL i saw this shop called “Kee Tak Zek” pronounced as “Kei Tuck Sek” in cantonese which means “Remember To Eat”, having heard KTZ being famous for it's varity of deserts we and i decided to just be glutons for a day and check out the place. Needless to say the picture speaks for itself...all i can say the Mango Ice Kacang was just heavenly....what was in it ..."fresh mango cubes nicely arranged over the fluffy ice shavings, afterwhich a sweet mango blended cream with sago was poured atop of it" ...FUH YUH!! when visiting Malaysia remember not to forget this experience... I'd recommend you try this stuff at KTZ ;) it would be an encounter to remember.........
