A tip for markets in Malaysia - you can haggle for items but never for food. Market food is already priced cheaply for locals and to haggle food prices is not seen favorably. You might also unintendingly insult the food seller if you want to haggle their prices as they might think you consider their food not worth the price it was charged.

The clear white thingy in Chendol/Cendol is not lychee but is mangrove palm fruit (Nypa fruiticans) where this type of palm grow at mangroves all around South East Asia. Lychee is soft and white and not clear looking jelly. In Malaysia we call it as 'Buah Kabong' and that mangrove palm we call it 'Nipah'. Even though Cendol is originally from Java, Indonesia, and the essential element is green jelly and shaving ice which make it different than Halo Halo in Philippines, or Bingsu in Korea. In Malaysia we have two types of shaving ice dessert.; 1- Chendol/Cendol which has so many varieties; Malay Cendol which is normal green jelly mixed with shaving ice, red beans, sweet corn, 'buah kabong' and pouring with rose syrup and condensed milk, Nyonya Cendol in Melaka, Indian Cendol, and Cendol you had in Penang is mixed between Chinese and Nyonya Cendol. Another type of cendol is mixed with Durian, and we call it as Cendol Durian. In the east coast of Malaysia mostly Kelantan you can can find a unique cendol mixed with fermented sticky rice and we call it as 'Cendol Pulut Tapai'. (Fermented Sticky Rice Cendol) 2- Ais Kacang (Peanut Ice) - this shaving ice without green jelly and uniquely Malaysian, with all elements of Cendol except the green jelly adding up with fried peanut sprinkles on the top. Another popular name for this dessert is ABC short for Air Batu Campur (Mixed Ice)
