Time For Some Rojak and Cendol!
After sending a Samsonite bag for repair in the morning at the service centre in Jalan Maarof, I stopped by the Petronas Station nearby to have some mamak rojak (pasembur) and cendol. Wah, it's been so long since I last ate these two at a mobile stall.

Two rojak (one with sotong) and two cendols = RM12.20. My tummy is full and I am happy. :)What is rojak and cendol?
Rojak Mamak (pasembur) contains fried dough fritters, bean curds, boiled potatoes, prawn fritters, hard boiled eggs, bean sprouts and cucumber mixed with a sweet thick, spicy peanut sauce.
Cendol is a dessert originating from Jawa, Indonesia. Among the ingredients are shaved ice, green noodles (the colouring came from the pandan leaf), coconut milk and palm sugar. Other add-on include red bean, sweetened corn and glutinous rice.
A good snack on hot day. It is a hot day today. Too hot, matter of fact. Ugh.
Do you know, my memory of Penang was eating pasembur by the seaside, with a view of the Penang Bridge. :)
We have these too.
ReplyDeleteBut I think our rojak is different from yours in Malaysia. We have 3 types of rojak.
ReplyDeleteI like cendol, especially on a hot day. :)

ReplyDeleteI like cendol, especially on a hot day. :)
ReplyDeleteHmmm, it seems a bit expensive, one rojak and 2 cendol. But the cendol is very nice on a hot day so I agree that it is a good snack despite the price :D
ReplyDeleteOoh, I like rojak and cendol - they are both like marriages made in heaven! So matching! That's why always see rojak being sold with cendol side by side.
ReplyDeleteGosh, it's now 3am and I'm still not asleep. Never mind, tomorrow can wake up late. Yippee!! : )
ReplyDeletewow, the rojak and cendol are hard to resist.
ReplyDelete@Farah,

ReplyDeletetwo rojaks actually - one normal and one with sotong. :) Maybe a tad expensive though, but someone else was paying, I don't mind! LOL
@foong,
