of Kuala Kangsar and Cendol of the World

Yesterday, together my auntie, her husband and my nenek saudara, my family and I went on a trip to Kuala Kangsar. Actually, it just began with us going to attend a distant relative's wedding in Ipoh. Then we all had this idea to continue our journey to Kuala Kangsar since it has been ages since we last go there. Abah was reluctant to go at the first place, but he had to give up since we all urged him to =P

Well, I have been wanting to go there for months. I really love it there. To be honest, I love Kuala Kangsar more than I love my kampung.

On our way there, I already had this vision of that something I've been craving for so long: the world's greatest Cendol Kuala Kangsar. You see, everytime we went to send, visit or pick up Abang, we always always would stopped by this food court by the river. One of the stall sells the best cendol ever. Slllrrp.

We stopped at the mosque first. Seeing the Masjid Ubudiah, I remembered something else that I've been missing: one of the world's greatest ice cream. I had always been one of that pakcik aiskrim's most loyal customer ever since Abang was in Form 1. Armed with an old motorcycle with colourful umbrella and a tong of traditional ice cream, that pakcik awaits me patiently in front of the mosque. Here is a picture of that yummy ice cream:


After that, we went to the great food court. But since we were accompanied by my auntie, uncle and nenek saudara, I had to be more patient since they wanted to look around at the the souvenir shops. So while waiting for them, I just gazed at the stall wth my blurry eye and said, "wait for me, cendol."

Finally, Abah couldn't wait anymore. He decided to head to the stall first. So, of course the impatient me and Kakngah tagged along. When the waiter came to us to take our order, I blurted out "cendol!" right away. Hahaha. Here's a picture of the Cendol of the World:


Unfortunately, my tummy couldn't take much santan although I'm a big big big fan of the cendol. I only managed to slurp about three quarter of it before passing it to my mom. Oh well.

Of course, Abah passed by Abang's former school, the great MCKK earlier (yes, it's awesomely great. Plus their canteen also sells the best air sirap). It feels weird just passing it by without entering. It's like our trip there wasn't complete without Abang :(

So that was it. Although it was too short, I had a fabulous time in my beloved Kuala Kangsar. I shall go visit again and again sooner or later (:

O Big Tree, we shall meet again soon :')
