Vistana Hotel's Gigantic Ice Kacang!

The Vistana Hotel in Kuantan must sell the biggest 'ice kacang' I have ever seen!

Ice kacang is a dessert including beans and jelly topped off with lots of ice shavings. Occasionally it may involve a scoop of ice-cream.

At the Coffee House at Vistana Hotel Kuantan we were absolutely amazed when my wife's order of ice kacang arrived!



How majestic does that look?! With a scoop of ice-cream on top as well! That is a real ice kacang!


Fidelia was sure happy with it!



And so began the task of getting a spoon in and eating the ice kacang without toppling it...

Fidelia removed the ice-cream onto a separate plate and started shaving the ice from the top down.


Fidelia changed to a more conventional spoon which made it easier to devour this monster of an ice kacang...



This is a 'longan', a fruit which is similar to a lychee but smaller. Ice kacangs may contain fruits, beans and jellies.



Fidelia is half-way through her ice kacang now...



The huge tower has disappeared. I wonder how much she can finish?



Fidelia stands behind her almost-finished ice kacang!




If you are in Kuantan and need a dessert, head over to the Vistana Hotel Coffee House and experience for yourself the mighty Vistana ice kacang!

  3. Detta påminner mig om när vi var restaurang i våras och jag beställde glass till efterrätt.
    När den kom in höll vi på att dö för den var gjord i en kakform som man bakar sockerkaka i.Den hade säkert räckt till femton personer.
    Att din fru orkade få i sig så mycket,fattar jag inte
    Gott ser det ut i alla fall.
    Hon måste ha varit på gränsen till att spricka hahaha!!!!
    Ha en bra dag där borta.

  4. Hi Lotta, thanks for coming over! That sounds like quite a huge ice-cream dessert! The ice kacang is more filling than it looks :)

  5. Wow - Well done, the saying, I did not know whether to eat it or climb it, comes to mind.

    I agree with MP - Brain Freeze - not good with cold stuff, I suffer the most when i go to have Tuttie Fruttie yogurt ice cream.

    Blog looks good.

    Regards John in JB

  7. Gigantic indeed! I like ais kacang but I've never seen anything like that. Ais kacang, in my opinion, is best with the ice-cream melted together with the ice (the tower) but in this case, it's impossible to blend them together. But it looks really nice. Yummy :)
