Joo Yee(Tan Kee Ice Kacang)@ Taman Pelangi

Bingsu (korean shaved ice desserts) outlets in JB seems to be increasing. However they are not cheap. Hope to try one day to see what's its all about. Till then I have to be contented with our local shaved ice delights.

Besides Yong Yong desserts at Tepian Tebrau hawkers, the other mainstay in JB is Tan Kee. I like the one that used to be at the hawkers next to the old immigration building in JB. However when we reached there, lo and behold ! the entire row of hawkers have been demolished!. Does anyone know where they went too? Because besides the ice kacang there, I loved the Nasi Goreng Daging Black pepper.

Not giving-up, we decided to go to the other one near Jalan Biru, Taman Pelangi. Easy to find as its opposite the famous San Low restaurant. This small group of hawkers have wallet friendly eats.

I am not sure of their relations but the Tan Kee in Pelangi and the Tan Kee that used to be in town. Anyways we ordered three main things...namely the ice kacang, ice jelly and char kui rojak. Sweet to the heart they all were. Prices from RM4.50 onwards for a bowl of dessert. I love the way the lady boss served the ice kacang. The moment she came to our table with the ice kacang, she squeezed a generous amount of chocolate sauce all over the ice shavings! Some say, chocolate on ice kacang is unique to JB. Not sure about that but lets have more of it. 

Give it a go yah !
