Best Ice Kacang in Penang

Scouring every nook and alley of Georgetown is downright fascinating as each step greets you with imposing historical ruins, beautiful murals, and mouthwatering meals, yet to refresh and rejuvenated, Ice Kacang seems to be the best bet. A stone’s throw away from Fort Cornwallis, Jalil Special Ice Kacang is habitually swamped with hordes of patrons, especially when the sun shows no mercy. Their version of Ice Kacang is absolutely jaw-dropping, with a towering ice glacier liberally loaded with syrups, a dollop of red beans, creamy corn, and scoop of vanilla ice cream sitting on the pinnacle. Certainly justifies the never-ending crowd.

Among the gastronomic hallmarks of Penang, this little gem has been churning out impeccable bowls of desserts that have made the narrow alley full-of-life. Their Ice Kacang is truly a fun interplay of texture, shaved ice drenched with syrups and evaporated milk then shrouded with smatterings of jellies, red beans and a wad of creamy corn. Prodding and swirling the heavenly dessert while hobnobbing with locals as well as tourists just brings a whole new convivial atmosphere that represents Penang.
