Satisfy your sweet tooth at Kek Seng Café, an iconic Penang café. Indulge in their delightful ice kacang, cendol, and traditional desserts that are bursting with flavors. A must-visit destination for dessert lovers in Penang.
The food here is good including Siam chicken rice and Asam laksa besides its famous red beans ice with ice cream. You may choose durian flavor ice cream with additional price. This is old F&b shop so don’t expect well decorated environment. No aircond too. Can pay using TNG ewallet here. Worth to pay a visit.
Good old time coffee shop with stalls with hawker food. As with other reviews, some dish tastes are missing from the laksa, toast, char kuey teow, teh, cham. I like that the auntie would leave out the ingredients I don't fancy. Perhaps you have better luck. We'll be back to try the chicken rice and the desserts.
Durian Ice Kacang good, must try. Laksa quite good also. But I hope the foreign worker service better, as we eat half way she ask to pay. Very awkward ( maybe I should pay first) but I already tempting to the cendul. Abit spoil the mood.
Saw the news of an Australian retired soldier hope to get his last meal. But the news dint write he get it or not. Quite sad.
Ever since I started working in the KOMTAR area back in 2018, my mom has consistently raved about this hidden gem. Today, with the company of friends, I finally had the pleasure of trying it out.Asam Laksa: 7.5/10
The Asam Laksa lived up to its reputation with a burst of flavors. While the broth was tangy and rich, I'd rate it a 7.5 out of 10 for its distinctive taste.Char Koay Teow (CKT): 7/10
The CKT had a decent flavor profile, but the wok hei could use a bit more finesse. I'd give it a solid 7 out of 10. Still enjoyable, but there's room for improvement.Durian Ice-cream Ice Kacang: 9/10
Now, this was a delightful surprise! The Durian Ice-cream Ice Kacang stole the show with a remarkable 9 out of 10. The durian ice-cream was incredibly flavorful, and what impressed me more was the jelly layers, each boasting a different flavor. A perfect symphony of sweetness and durian goodness.Overall, Mom's recommendation didn't disappoint. I'll undoubtedly be returning to savor Siam Chicken Rice.
