Batu Lanchang Hawker Ice Kacang & Cendol

When one think of snow, one think of soft cold ice. Almost all ice kacang and cendol places I have been serves shaved ice which is rather coarse. So ‘soft’ does not come to mind when having ice kacang (and cendol).

This place, however, serves ice kacang in soft ice, a rarity. Eating the ice kacang feels like eating a sarsi clowd. Sarsi flavour is very evident and the ice was ‘soft as snow’ so to speak; but I would term it as soft as cotton; cotton candy.

Their ice shaver seems to be perpetually on when I was there and customer volume was low. I think their secret is to gently shave their ice so that it comes out in fine crystals rather than ice flakes.

Look out for stall number 22

Remarks: Care taken to shave ice to a soft smooth texture; surely worth the effort. A nearby shop which opens from 3.30pm onwards selling kuih seems very popular.

Hello Sir,

I have been viewing your website lately about food, cultural, etc... but when it comes to festival, there is only 2 info which is CNY and Thaipusam... there is no information about Hari Raya Aidilfitri/Aidiladha, Deepavali, Christmas, etc... etc... even the festival is days away... Any action to improve on this, sir?

Yes, make sure it is the stall next to the economy rice. One thing special is, you can request "brown sugar" for the ice kacang. Taste authentic! :-)

Have a try!!

The best ice kacang in Penang is at Hot & Spicy Cafe, Jalan Air Itam (main road), in front of the old Choon Nam cinema, opposite Public Bank Air Itam branch, just a few doors away from Shell petrol station.
RM2.80 per plate with ice-cream.

Pls use correct grammar. "When one thinks of snow", not "when one think..". TQ.
