And here I thought that Halo-Halo was the best shaved ice treat that I ever had. Well, it still is. But Malaysia's Ice Kacang has managed to shove Halo-Halo off the top of my list for now.
Visiting Kuala Lumpur's Central Market on a late hot Sunday afternoon and getting yourself some Ice Kacang is truly a great way to treat yourself this summer. If I just lived in Malaysia, I would probably spend most of my weekend afternoons just lazily eating away at my bowl of Ice Kacang.
Ice Kacang is a dessert that is very common in Malaysia. You can find it almost anywhere whether you're at the mall or just walking around the city. The sweet syrup that covers the shaved ice, sweet corn on top, grass jelly, nata de coco, red beans and nuts at the bottom can make u tilt your head upwards and thank mother nature for producing all these heavenly ingredients.
Modern Ice Kacang's have ice cream on top and I had mine with a chocolate flavored one. Though with or without the ice cream, it still is a very delicious cold dessert.
Look around for Ice Kacang's when you're in Malaysia. It will really help comfort your taste buds with that sweet cool treat.
*I had my Ice Kacang at Kopitiam, located at the food court on the second level of Kuala Lumpur's Central Market
