Candidate 1 - Stall opposite Hoe Kee Chicken Rice Ball Outlet. Shop ran by a Malay guy and is decorated with Coke bottles. Price RM2.00.
Verdict: The cendol looks very pretty in dark jade green. But ridiculously small bowl for such price. Maybe the shop just opened. but I The cendol tasted frozen. Horrible.Candidate 2 - Jonker Street 88 Shop. Priced at RM 1.70.
Verdict : Dont look nor tasted anything like cendol to me. More ais-kacangee than cendol.Candidate 3 - The famous Clock Tower Cendol. Not along Jonker Street but near there la. And with the reputation as the best Cendol in Malacca, must be tested also. RM1.40.
Verdict: Tasted the gula Melaka, but not very flavourful.
Melaka Cendol is looking bad. Three out of three. Fortunately we went to the Friday Jonker Street Night Market to have a look and is attracted to a stall.
Candidate 4 - Shop besides Jonker Street 88. Night business only. Tested their Durian Cendol. RM3.00.
Turns out to be a winner,
The secret, IMHO, the tonnes of Gula Melaka they put into the desert. And the added durian puree is so fragrant.
Still, I will take Penang Cendol any time.
