Original Stall Signboard |
If you were to come to Penang, you have to try the famous penang chendol. The name is also called Penang Road "Famous" Teochew Chendol. This stall is so pack with people standing around the stall enjoying the chendol. They are so famous that their staffs are wearing uniform (a polo-tee with the logo on the back of their shirt). They are so famous that there are competitors selling the same chendol at the same row. Hehe! To differentiate the original and competitor is by this signboard. Another is the bowl, the original has two color bowl, blue and beige whereas the competitor is using orange bowl.
As i was sitting in Cafe Joo Hooi, the lady-boss told me that she will assist me to order. I was surprised that she ordered from the competitor of the chendol for me and most of all charging me more than the original. So, i quickly went out to get the original one.

When i came back with the chendol, immediately the lady boss charge me RM0.50 corkage. If i knew, i would have just stand outside and finish the bowl. Insane! The original one is good, the taste is just nice (not too sweet and thick enough). Whereas the competitor's chendol is so sweet and diluted. So please choose wisely!
