Ice kachang

Shaved ice over red beans, attap seed, and grass jelly, topped with colourful syrups and often condensed milk — the classic answer to a 33°C afternoon.

Chendol

Coconut milk and palm sugar poured over shaved ice and green rice-flour jelly noodles — less sweet than ice kachang, and arguably more refreshing.

Tau huay

Silken soybean pudding served warm or cold in a light sugar syrup — simple, and a good palate-cleanser after a heavy hawker meal.
