Shaven Ice (ABC) with Gula Melaka @ Jonker Street, Melaka

After reading Jasmine’s blog, I hunted for the Gula Melaka topped ice kacang (shaven ice) at Jonker Street. According to Jasmine, the place that serves the said dessert is somewhere nearby Explorer cafe.

We found the café easily 😀 It’s on the main road of Jonker.


Swedish Daniel enjoying a Malaysian delicacy 😀
We have choice of a mixture of cendol and kidney beans or corn and kidney beans. I hate kidney beans.

The abc was EXCELLENT. The Gula Melaka was no ordinary Gula Melaka. It was melted Gula Melaka with gluey texture. Orgasmic I tell you.
The café also has a small Maritime museum with many treasures salvaged from the sea. I particularly like the old coins that were salvaged from sunken ships. They even have a 6th century coin (shaped like a knife) on display!


Great Ambiance 😀
