Hot weather again and I got to work outdoor. No office work means no aircon to beat the heat especially when the area you were at does not have a nearby shopping mall. So the next best thing to do is to eat something cold. Ice kachang was the first thing that came to my mind and I went to search for it at Ghim Moh Food Centre. I remembered BFF J told me about a stall at this food centre that sells good local desserts and that the stall owner does not work daily. She mentioned that it really depends on luck if you want to try out the desserts at this stall. But the couple of times which I went, the stall is always opened. Probably I had better luck than her?
Anyway, there were a couple of people in queue when I reached. I guess hot weather will bring good business to desserts stall. Most of them ordered Ice Kachang as well. For the price of $1.30, definitely worth it to get another bowl. But the artificial colouring deters me from doing so.
I remembered, as a kid, I love to eat Ice Kachang. I guess it got to be due to the fact that my family seldom dined out. So in the event that we ate at hawker centres, my parents would order ice kachang for us. As kids, having to eat shaved ice was like a luxury. Eating ice kachang brings back childhood memories.

Ice Kachang is not purely shaved ice. It has hidden 'gems' under the shaved ice. The ingredients that this stall had are red beans, corn, attap seed, and some jellies. Quite a good deal and remember to mix them in order to taste the best of ICE KACHANG!
