Jin Jin Hot/Cold Dessert (ABC Brickworks Market & Food Centre)

... of Jin Jin Dessert’s Power Chendol. A whole lot of (gula melaka) heaven for 2 bucks at ABC hawker centre.

A play on the Chinese pronunciation of durian (Liu), mango (Mang) and ice (Bing), this gangster Ice dessert is a crowd favourite at Jin Jin Dessert located at ABC Brickworks Hawker Centre.

The combination of Mao Shan Wang durian purée and sweet mango cubes sitting atop shaved ice drowned in evaporated milk is simply irresistible!

Loved the sweetness of the mango cubes and the overall flavour of this! The flavour on the ice is not too sweet, the mango wasn’t too overpowering. And also very reasonably priced (: worth queueing up for!

The thick syrupy texture of the gula melaka being the main draw. So gooey, sticky and fragrant, the dark caramel had a very pleasant hint of saltiness. Mix that goodness with fresh coconut milk, red bean, slippery green jelly, attap chee and finely shaved ice; and you will get yourself an elevated chendol that hits all the right buttons. Shiok ah!

I love cendol, and probably have had my fair share of pedestrian chendol.

However, this Power Cendol was quite outstanding. Most of the components were decent, but it was the viscuous gula melaka, with its intense fragrance and sweetness, that made it so enjoyable.

Don’t you wish for a bowl of power chendol to drive away the heat right now? I would still crown this as my top choice chendol locally for its luscious gula melaka with such thick consistency! Shaped like an ice ball of snow-like shaved ice, there’s also lots of red bean, green chendol and more than just one attap seed. Queuing is definitely worth it.
