Cendol

Cendol is a local Malay dessert made of thick green rice vermicelli dipped in coconut milk and sweetened with brown or white sugar and chilled with crushed ice. Topped with creamy corn, agar-agar (jelly), glutinous rice and red beans makes it more irresistible. While it is available throughout Malaysia, the best of it is available at the roadside stall in kilometer 11, Sg. Gadut, Seremban, Negeri Sembilan.


For RM 2.50 can you eat all you can, top up as much as you want and “bungkus” (take away) for the road trip. As a bonus you can be updated on history of Malaysia and its tourist attraction by the all know, ex-army boss of the cendol outlet.

"Fruit or Faeces"?

Have you seen, heard, or eaten a fruit that smells and looks like fresh faeces?

This is the Durian (Durio or Durionaceae), widely known and revered in Southeast Asia as the “king of fruits”. It is a fruit with hard thorny skin and creamy flesh with hard seeds; it has a strong pungent and repelling smell which is like fresh faeces to the first timer. They pinch their nose before eating the fruit. But, wow! Once you have tasted the fruit, you will not stop eating and liking it.



The durian is distinctive for its large size and unique odour. The fruit can grow as large as 30 centimeters (12 in) long and 15 centimeters (6 in) in diameter, and it typically weighs one to three kilograms (2 to 7 lb). Its shape ranges from oblong to round and the internal creamy flesh comes in various unimaginable colors like white, cream, yellow, orange, red and indigo. The orange, red and indigo species can be found on the Borneo Island. This fruit are seasonal.
