Bismillah Cendol, Taiping, Perak

A cold bowl of cendol always does the trick when you need to cool down in the hot Malaysian weather. When in Taiping, there are two famous places to have cendol, both within walking distance of each other. One of them is Bismillah Cendol, which has been around since 1993.

Here, you can find cendol biasa, kacang, pulut, and pulut kacang as well as laksa and pasembor. We went for the Cendol pulut (RM2 per bowl), which came with pulut which has been slightly toasted / roasted. The portion here is slightly larger than the other place, and the pulut does lend a nice salty contrast to the sweet cendol as well as adding some texture.
