Ironically, it is located right next to this coconut milk beverage joint which has been there for years.
[I wonder if they are competitors or partners!!]
I specifically came here for the NC coconut jelly but they said it was sold out even though there were two in the fridge which is the same packaging as the one on their FB.
[It was probably reserved for the media].
Sampled their coconut icecream which was not bad.
As I came all the way to MK, decided to try the dessert served in a coconut shell which is basically the famous Chatuchak coconut icecream served in a coconut shell with coconut flesh and a topping.
Some of the flesh is partially scooped for your convenience.
For $25, you get a mini cup of coconut water and a free topping.
The toppings you can choose are coconut gels, cornflakes, palm coconut, red beans and more but I would like to see glutinous rice as an option too.
It was a bit troublesome paying and collecting the dessert because MK is really crowded.
I was given the coconut water which I downed imediately or I wouldn't have hands for the dessert.
The coconut water comes from the coconuts and not the cans displayed beside it.
It was quite good that they gave you that because when they open the coconut the water isn't wasted and it freshens your mouth with a nice coconut aroma before you start the icecream.
After i finished that, the dessert came which was served in a small coconut shell wrapped in some paper.
I chose cornflakes as a topping because the cornflakes were unsweetened.
Beneath the scoop of icecream, there was scraped coconut meat from the shell.
I loved it because the coconut icecream was like icy sorbet with pieces of coconut meat in it with a creamy taste that was complemented nicely by the cornflakes which had a tad of saltiness to it.
As i finished most of the icecream, the coconut meat was pretty hard to scrape using their plastic spoon.
For improvements, it would be good if they scraped all the flesh because their spoons are not made for tough use.
While I was eating there this woman also had trouble finishing off the flesh at the bottom and queried the girl about it.
The staff was really nice and helped her scrape the rest.
However the scraper was not immediately washed and placed back in the holder so when they next use it that person will get her saliva.
Apart from that, it was really delicious because the coconut flesh tastes creamier with more mouthfeel compared to the young coconut flesh which is softer.
Next time I am in MK, I will try the coconut jelly.
