Tim Pun Gor Gor, Kepong

Food Adventure Series - Kepong, Part Three (Final)

After the long wait for our noodles at Seng Yuen, we needed to end our night in Kepong on a sweet note. During our 1 hour 15 minutes wait, Simon and CityGal mentioned a few places where we go head onto for some desserts. Since Jason and I weren't familiar with this territory, we just kinda went along - and we ended up at Tim Pun Gor Gor (Tim Pun - "desserts" and Gor Gor - brother).

Tim Pun Gor Gor, Kepong - Dessert Shop

We reached there near to closing time and sat outdoors as they were preparing to clean the indoor area. The dessert menu is rather extensive and we had a tough time trying to decide what to order, Simon especially, hehe...

Decisions, decisions, decisions

The time we took to put in our orders were further delayed slightly as we took some time to take photos of ourselves too (me excluded in this pic, since I was the one taking the photo).

Almond & Black Sesame Dessert
Almond & Black Sesame Dessert (RM3/USD0.85). I tasted a bit of this but I found it a tad sweet but Simon liked it.

Almond, Red Bean & Lotus Dessert
CityGal's Almond, Red Bean and Lotus Dessert (RM3.30/USD0.90). This was an interesting combo and fared better.

Mango Noodles
Jason and I shared this unique Mango with Noodles Dessert (RM7.50/USD2). Served chilled, it had strands and strands of "noodles" buried underneath a generous amount of mango cubes. I was cautious when it came to eating the "noodles" as they looked like some slippery hor fun (flat noodles). On first bite, I was pleasantly surprised as it turned out to be strands of jelly instead - coconut milk flavoured jelly strands. How interesting! The strands of jelly and the mango cubes complemented each other well.

We had a great time in Kepong - spending approximately RM15/USD4 each in total for our three stops here (Sen Kee Duck Satay, Seng Yuen Fried Noodles and Tim Pun Gor Gor). It was nice to do a food crawl after such a long while - it's what food bloggers do and enjoy best ;o). So, here's to more food adventures!

Jelly noodles!! Genius! How ever did they achieve that consistency with jelly alone?
