Ice Kacang is one of the best shaved ice desserts to have in Malaysia. Swatow Lane Ice Kacang in Jalan Burma, Penang has been making it in Penang, since 1923. The cafe now serves a variety of different ice kacang and other desserts. Their signature is the Ice Kacang with Fruits. Definitely one of the most refreshing and delicious desserts we have in Penang.
We ought to give the special among the special a try, thus we ordered a Ice Kacang Special at the premium price of RM 6. The regular ice kacang is topped with 3 fruits of the day, and one of the ice cream available (if we recall correctly, it would be either peanut or vanilla). Overall the combination worked well, not overly sweet, and shaved ice was smooth and not exhibiting the ice crystals that will cause displeasure to the tongue.
老板开店后,还有售卖美食,但是我们只是点了Laksa 和椰浆饭,价钱都还蛮大众化的,炸鸡椰浆饭RM5.50罢了哦!
Here's the location.
这家至1923 年营业至今的老字号得以在相同地点继续经营,让老味道得以传承。
