QUOTE(ryder_78 @ Sep 23 2021, 11:26 AM) I tried the rojak at "Rojak Siti & Cendol" where the stall in the form of a small truck was set up in front of SMK Menjalara in Bandar Menjalara, Kepong. The rojak is not too bad and quite good. However, the cendol is not good. At one point when I ordered the rojak (takeaway), the guy asked me if I wanted to try the cendol. I just came for the rojak, but since the guy asked I ordered one packet of cendol. I was trying to look for this location 2 weeks ago, unfortunately couldn't find it.The Waze directed me to the Catholic Church near the cross juntion toward the Jinjang's night market. Going to locate it again soon for the pasembur. The cendol was a disappointment. It didn't have the santan taste at all, tasted like water. The gula melaka also tasted very mild as if it's diluted. If you ask me to rate, Rojak : 7.5 or 8/10 Cendol : 2/10 (I didn't finish the whole packet and threw some away) The cendol assesment for me personally need to pass the followings :- 1. The shaved ice must be smooth. 2. The palm sugar must be thicked enough & not diluted. 3. The coconut milk mixture must be correct, cannot be too diluted or oily. Some heated the coconut milk until oily, is a no no. 4. The cendol must be squishy but still maintained the shape. 5. The red bean must use big red bean not the small red bean , the red beans need to maintain the wholeness apperance ( masih sebiji-biji ), when bite cannot be hard or powdery (under cooked), must be soft & creamy. The one that fits the above closely so far 1. Penang Road Teo Chew Cendol - the red bean my not rank the best. 2. Cendul Wisma Ganda @ Perak - the red bean is the best so far I have tasted. 3. Little Yum Yum @ Kota Damansara - got all the correct mixture correct but I only compained that they are slightly stingy on the amount of the palm sugar. The other outlets which I have tried 4. James Cendul @ Perak - above average but the coconut milk too oily , the red bean cannot maintain the wholeness appearance- it was a turn off for me. 5. Cendul Klang - above the average 6. Most of the cendul @ Melaka Nyoya / Peranakan ( Nancy, Donald, Amy, etc) were good / above the average with the coconut milk , shaved ice & palm sugar except the red beans & the cendol jelly itself. The serving portion was small & pricey in my opinion. |

While the memory of the taste still fresh for Kwong Wah's cendol, I decided to pay a visit to Yum Yum @ Kota Damansara for their cendol.
![]() The shop already relocated to same row with Lan Je Steam Fish ![]() ![]() 1. The shaved ice must be smooth - 9/10 2. The palm sugar must be thicked enough & not diluted - 10/10 3. The coconut milk mixture must be correct, cannot be too diluted or oily - 6/10. They used to serve pam kernel as the santan years ago but for the current visit, the coconut milk was from ready packed / not fresh type. 4. The cendol must be squishy but still maintained the shape - 9/10 5. The red bean must use big red bean not the small red bean , the red beans need to maintain the wholeness apperance ( masih sebiji-biji ) - 8/10. They used to use big red bean. I can only concluded that, their quality of the cendol may not be the same like few years back especially for santan & red bean ingredients. |

I ordered 1 cendol biasa & rojak biasa. One of the best in Ampang. I've taste the best in Melaka. But for KL, this one is quite good. And another one infront of Masjid Al Azim, Pandan Indah. Cendol on Lori, also the best Still can get while PKP nowdays for this Taman Kosas ![]() ![]() The cendol biasa. I scoped left & right, something missing - how come no red beans ?!. Waved my hand to makcik, "Makcik, kenapa tak ada kacang punya ?". Makcik replied "Ohh, you mau ada kacang punya, cakap la cendol kacang, bukannya cendol biasa". Now only I know the order must state the red beans else you won't be given the red beans. ![]() After added with red beans. ![]() Rojak / pasembur ![]() The fritters were crispy & the gravy was good. ![]() Cendol rating given :- 1. The shaved ice must be smooth - 8/10 2. The palm sugar must be thicked enough & not diluted - 8/10 3. The coconut milk mixture must be correct, cannot be too diluted or oily - 8/10 4.

Tried the SS15 Rojak at the USJ 10 Taipan Branch ( near to Conlay Tower ).
![]() ![]() RM 4.50 per serving. The taste rating I'll rate at 7.5/10. The rojak pale in comparison compare to Tmn Kosas & Bandar Puteri. Got a very mild sour taste of the gravy which I personally don't think it is going well with the fritters. ![]() 1. The shaved ice must be smooth - 8/10 2. The palm sugar must be thicked enough & not diluted - 7/10 3. The coconut milk mixture must be correct, cannot be too diluted or oily - 7/10 4. The cendol must be squishy but still maintained the shape - 8/10 5. The red bean must use big red bean not the small red bean , the red beans need to maintain the wholeness appearance ( masih sebiji-biji ) - 9/10. A bit stingy the red bean serving portion in my opinion. This post has been edited by nihility: Oct 26 2021, 03:20 PM |

Yesterday I tried some cendol at Nyonya Tingkat @ Aeon Equine
![]() ![]() Priced at RM 6.90/ bowl 1. The shaved ice must be smooth - 7/10 2. The palm sugar must be thicked enough & not diluted - 6/10 ( the fragrant was not there ) 3. The coconut milk mixture must be correct, cannot be too diluted or oily - 6/10 ( they are using pre-packed coconut milk) 4. The cendol must be squishy but still maintained the shape - 8/10 5. The red bean must use big red bean not the small red bean , the red beans need to maintain the wholeness appearance ( masih sebiji-biji ) - 7/10. They were serving big red bean but the flavor not there. Taman Kosas red bean the best so far. |

Seremban Hj Shariff Cendol , still consider within KV.
![]() ![]() Need to queue of for self service. ![]() Ordered a plate of Rojak & 1 bowl of cendol. ![]() Close up Rojak. RM 5/ plate. ![]() Close up cendol. RM 2.50/bowl ( no complaint) My personal review as follows 1. The shaved ice must be smooth - 9/10 2. The palm sugar must be thicked enough & not diluted - 8/10 3. The coconut milk mixture must be correct, cannot be too diluted or oily - 8.5/10 4. The cendol must be squishy but still maintained the shape - 8/10 5. The red bean must use big red bean not the small red bean , the red beans need to maintain the wholeness appearance ( masih sebiji-biji ) - 6/10. They served small red beans & some already hancur…but no complaint for the price they are selling. Still a good deal. The cendol still tasted above average. Rojak = 6.5/10. Tmn Kosas & Bandar Puteri Puchong tasted way better. |

Auntie's Ling Nyonya Cendol @ Medan Selera Wawasan SS3. This cendol by far the best (rated No.1 by me) at Klang Valley I have ever tried. It was such a rare occasion that it can displaced all the previous ranking. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 1. The shaved ice must be smooth - 10/10 2. The palm sugar must be thicked enough & not diluted - 10/10 3. The coconut milk mixture must be correct, cannot be too diluted or oily - 10/10 4. The cendol must be squishy but still maintained the shape - 10/10 5.

2 weeks ago, managed to try Aunty's Koh Cendol at Melaka. It was claimed to be a must try in the list during the trip to Melaka.
![]() ![]() ![]() This was my evaluation :- 1. The shaved ice must be smooth - 10/10 2. The palm sugar must be thicked enough & not diluted - 10/10 3. The coconut milk mixture must be correct, cannot be too diluted or oily - 10/10 4. The cendol must be squishy but still maintained the shape - 10/10 5. The red bean must use big red bean not the small red bean , the red beans need to maintain the wholeness appearance ( masih sebiji-biji ) - 0/10. 6) The portion was almost 1/2 the serving size you can get nationwide but it was selling at RM 5 / bowl. 0/10 Personally felt it was a tourist trap & not worth the time, you can easily get similar quality of cendol from Klang Valley at places like Makan Time & Kwong Wah at more value price with equivalent / better quality. |
