Scorching heat and wanting to have some 'power' desserts?
Jin Jin Desserts have been a resident of ABC Food Centre and Market. For some reason, the previous owner gave up the shop and was later revived by two people - Calvin Ho and Ewan Tang. One is a DJ and the other an insurance agent, interesting how both would venture into dessert business.
Never did I expect to see a long queue of customers waiting patiently to place their orders at a dessert stall in a hawker centre. Especially on a rainy day!
As from the sign board, you could see what is their famous dessert - Gangster Ice and Power Chendol. Gangster Ice came from the name in Chinese 榴莲芒果冰 which shorten it 榴芒冰 which have the same pronunciation as Gangster Ice.
We decided to order both even on a cold rainy day! We waited about 10min before we are able to place our order.
It is served with a scoop of pure durian and fresh mango cubes. At first, I thought it was durian ice cream, but it was pure durian flesh! It was sweet with a bit of bitter taste.
Mango cubes are sweet and soft, but some interesting effect it left on my tongue, it does have soft spike feeling to the tongue. The crushed ice was filled with evaporated milk. I don't personally recommend to mix the durian with the ice, it's good enough to be eaten by itself! Overall a must try for durian lovers!
Next, Power Chendol. It is not Power for nothing. Most of the dessert stalls give too much coconut milk and little to none Gula Melaka. Which makes this stall very generous with the Gula Melaka
If you enjoy Gula Melaka, you are going to love this because the Gula Melaka here has a thick syrupy honey like texture. It's worth queueing up for Jin Jin Dessert and I doubt any chendol fans would be disappointed.
While they serve a variety of other hot and cold dessert, I have yet to try others as I will sure to return for their cendol again!
