    In indonesia there's this cendol company that uses not only pandan but also suji leaves. The suji added extra flavor, smells like pandan but more flavorful. Also the red bean/kidney bean here doesnt taste sour, maybe the sour taste comes from the processing? Indonesian usually soak the bean in water overnight before boil the bean.

    OMG I don't know if there's any Malaysian cendol stall left that makes its cendol from scratch!! And not using the red kidney beans from cans is seriously good thinking. Must try this out the next time I visit s'pore

    I'm astonished he had to resort to Chinese when his English seemed fluent enough. Guess he is just a well practiced Chinese-language-raised guy.
