Penang Road Famous TeoChew Chendul – A Heritage of Authentic Chendul Since 1936
A Legacy of Chendul Since 1936
The story of Penang Road Famous TeoChew Chendul began in 1936, when Mr. Tan Teik Fuang set up a humble roadside stall along Penang Road. With passion and dedication, he crafted each bowl of chendul (or cendol) with the finest ingredients, ensuring every serving was made with love and care. His warm hospitality and friendly service soon made his stall a local favorite, attracting both Penangites and visitors from all over.
As customers enjoyed the refreshing blend of finely shaved ice, creamy coconut milk, fragrant gula Melaka, soft pandan-flavored green jelly, and red beans, Mr. Tan took great pride in seeing the joy on their faces.
