Refreshing Coconut Jelly @ Coconut Grove Dessert Corner, Oasis Bandar Utama

Located at the Oasis BU, especially for Bandar Utama Residents, I'm sure you have seen or at least passed by this place. Coconut Grove serves my favourite dessert ! Coconut Jelly ! Woots! Woots!

The first time I've tried Coconut Jelly was few years back in Penang @ the popular Joez Coconut. I had like 3 of them in a day ! It was that good ! I was surprised with joy to find a dessert corner that specializes in Coconut Jellies and the best part is, it's located right at my neighbourhood here in PJ ! Wee . . !


The place is nicely lit up . . and take note on the lil coconut trees design on their wallpaper. . brings you an overall relaxing coconut-by-the-beach mood :)



They serve a varieties of dessert, from their homemade Tong Sui to Snow Ice to Chocolate Cake and many more.

I like their unique names for their Snow Ice Selection:

Pink Panther (Honey Dew Flavoured Ice)
Garfield (Passion Mango Flavoured Ice)
Chip N' Dale (Peanut Flavoured Ice)
Morning Glory (Milk Flavoured Ice)
Jack & The Beanstalk (Green Tea Flvoured Ice)


But the hero is . . no other than . . .

Coconut Jelly !!


I've read about the magic behind the making of coconut jelly, through the HOT and COLD process. Firstly, part of the husk was removed and it was heated in the oven. They were allowed to be cooled for a period of time, they were then moved to the cooler room. During this period, the magic happens where the semi solid form of the jelly will slowly form. How cool is that ?!

The ssslurp of the chilled smooth jelly into your mouth is just pure sensation ! The taste of its natural sweetness is simply heavenly. You have to enjoy it slowly :)
  
 The silky smooth Coconut Jelly ♥


The shredded Nata de Coco toppings adds more delicious texture to it ♥ 


Other toppings include Cendol, Red Bean, Aloe Vera (my favourite too), Green Tea Jelly & "Q" Jelly
  
Beware of the difficulties in trying to get the Coconut Flesh out from its shell. It is HARD. LOLs.
Someone caught in action :p

 
Erm . . I don't quite fancy Coconut Flesh as I do not like the rich coconut milk from its white kernel. I only love the Coconut Water or in this case the Jelly form ♥


Tadaa . . the Coconut Flesh !

His hard work ♥ with LOVE ;)


You just gotta try one now !

I'm a big fan of any form of jelloish jelly tingie. Hehe. Aiyu is a famous Taiwanese Jelly made from the gel of a variety of Fig seeds, best served with honey and lemon. Unlike usual, this drink here has the classic wintermelon sweetness instead of honey. Love this drink :)

 Good standard Smooth milk tea but nothing extraordinaire. Unfortunately, they were out of black pearls that time :( However, me chose the next best, which is the Grass Jelly of course.
 
 They have a mini section of fun board games of your choice !


Nothing beats a good old game of wooden blocks.



It wasn't ME ! :p

That time I was craving for something refreshing yet healthy . . therefore, i bumped into the well known bubble tea kiosk, Each A Cup. With more than 80 outlets nationwide, Each A Cup claims that they used only quality concentrated fruit juice and not syrup.

Murni Discovery @ Aman Suria (Sunway Mas)

Murni is a well known Mamak with 5 branches at different points of Klang Valley. Compared to the famous branch in SS2, Murni Discovery @ Aman Suria has a better ambience with air-conditioning and cleaner environment.

Two words best describe their menu- variety & sharing. They serve various foods across Chinese cuisine, Malay delicacies to Indian tantalizing roti, you name it ! And the portion of food they served is really generous and meant for sharing. No matter which type of foods you pick, it will definitely give your taste bud a fresh definition of delicious.



At Murni, I always look forward to try out their different drinks, especially their fruit juices mix. Do check out the creative names for their drinks :)
