Cendol (or “Chendol”) is a sweet iced dessert known for its mixture of ingredients from the signature green rice flour jelly, to coconut milk and palm sugar (Gula Melaka).

With the increasingly HOT weather, this would make such a refreshing treat in the staggering heat. In this article we are featuring our top 5 chendol in Singapore.

• Four Seasons Chendol

Four Seasons Cendol is a household name when it comes to the best cendol in Singapore. The eatery has an outlet in Toa Payoh Lor 8.

Visitors to this cendol haven can expect a scrumptious and creamy bowl of sugary goodness. Each order is prepared on the spot and swiftly put together in under a minute, so there is no long wait time. The taste is exceptional, and the presentation is Instagram-worthy, although it’s best to snap photos quickly in Singapore’s hot weather.

From just $2.60, customers can indulge in a bowl of cendol. The bowls are already filled with attap seeds and red beans, topped with a perfect dome of thick green jelly and ice shavings.

What sets Four Seasons Cendol apart is the gooey Gula Melaka topping that adds an appeasing and sweet lingering aroma to the dish. Also, the red beans are large and very soft, and there are no small red beans to be found.

• Old Amoy Chendol

At only $250 per bowl, visitors can indulge in a scrumptious bowl of cendol that boasts fresh, scratch-made ingredients every day. From the rich and thick Gula Melaka to the soft and sweet red beans, each component is prepared to perfection.

The cendol is light and has a lovely coconut taste, with smoky and fragrant Gula Melaka complementing the dish’s soft and sweet red beans. The standout element of this cendol is the soft green jelly, which has a distinct pandan fragrance that adds an extra layer of flavor to the dish.

However, it’s worth noting that on a recent visit, some customers found that the ingredients in the cendol weren’t as full as before. Nevertheless, this eatery is still a great place to get your cendol fix at an affordable price.

• Makan Melaka

At Makan Meleka, customers can indulge in the “Cendol Melaka” from just $2, with the option to add on various toppings such as corn, red bean, glutinous rice, durian, or a combination of all.

One of the key highlights of this chendol outlet is its commitment to using fresh ingredients. The coconut milk is sourced from local suppliers, while the gula melaka is specially brought in from Malacca, ensuring a top-quality taste experience.

The richness of the palm sugar, combined with the faint pandan flavour of the green ‘worms’, make for a refreshing and indulgent treat. Customers can even request for the sweetness level to be adjusted according to their preference.

• Cendol Geylang Serai

For a taste of traditional Indonesian-style cendol, look no further than this 50-year-old stall located in Geylang Serai. This beloved establishment has been serving up delectable cendol for decades and continues to draw long queues every single day.

Customers can choose from three versions of cendol, including a cup with ice for $3, a cup without ice for $3.50, and a bowl for $2.00, which is only available for dine-in.

The green pandan-flavoured jelly in this cendol contains more rice flour than any other place, giving it a soft and flavourful texture. The coconut milk and gula Melaka are both fresh and delicious, although the overall sweetness level may be a bit too much for some.

While some customers may find the lack of additional ingredients such as attap seeds, red bean or sweet corn less value-for-money, the authentic taste and quality of this cendol more than makes up for it.
