Homemade ice cream is something we can rarely get nowadays. This coffee shop is famous for its homemade ice cream topped on ice kacang. Kek Seng Coffee Shop is one of the hidden gems in Penang.
My ice kacang topped with chocolate and sweet corn ice cream. There are also one piece of jelly on top of the ice kacang which I found that it’s pretty unique. It’s very refreshing to have a bowl of ice kacang in a hot sunny day.
Actually durian flavour ice cream is the famous ice cream here, but I opt for chocolate and sweet corn flavour as I’ll be 10 feet away if I smell durian. 
The char koay teow tasted normal. From the picture, you also will know that it’s my bf’s plate of ckt. He always omit out the bean sprout one. Missing the crunchiness, no omph lol. I am totally 180 Degree different, I like mine with extra bean sprout. 
I will always order laksa if I spot a laksa stall wherever I dine at. Die hard fan huh…
The laksa soup was pretty clear with just the right level of sweet, sour and spiciness. The are bits of fish in the soup. It’s actually comparable to the Penang Hill Laksa.

The jelly looks so cute on the ice kacang! This reminds me of the ice kacang with peanut ice-cream my friend told me about.

I like the lor bak. Ice kacang tastes ok, just the ice-cream not the creamy version.
