Unfortunately, things didn’t go quite as planned. We discovered upon arrival that the main outlet we had intended to visit was closed, as it was a public holiday in Pahang - the Sultan of Pahang's Birthday. It was a bit of a letdown.
Thankfully, a quick internet search led us to a smaller outlet in town called Hoi Hen Seafood Products. While it didn’t quite meet the ladies' expectations - the selection was modest and less varied than they had hoped - I found myself pleasantly surprised. I was genuinely impressed by what they did offer: quality over quantity, it seemed to me.
In the end, even though the outing didn’t go exactly according to plan, the detour offered a glimpse into Kuantan’s local charm - and a reminder that sometimes, it’s the unexpected discoveries that stay with you the longest.
Unfortunately, just like the seafood outlet earlier, Cendol Air Putih was also closed - another casualty of the public holiday. With the shutters down and no cendol in sight, my craving had to be put on hold.
It was a small disappointment, but I reminded myself: sometimes, the anticipation makes the next opportunity even sweeter.
