Brunei's ABC

Brunei's ABC

Since it's summer, I'd like to share the dessert that I tasted in Brunei. ABC is Brunei's version of Pinoy Halo-halo. The mix of there ABC is corn, beans, gelatin, sugar syrup, evaporated milk and ice. It is like a halo-halo but the difference is the ice. Halo-halo here in the Philippines is crushed while in Brunei is in blocks, see the photo? This was taken when i was in Brunei particularly in Seria last November 2010.

Food Cost: B$1.00 Brunei Dollar
