Not too bad! Price is affordable, unfortunately how this was served can be better rather than using that material. Different days u dropby they have different flavours. I only had their vanilla flavor. Their highlight for me is their gula apong. What I like it wasnt crowded on a weekend evening

Must try gula apong ice cream in Kuching town near waterfront. Their boba is pretty soft and chewy. The topping goes well with the ice cream!

RG Ais Krim Bergula Apong is a beloved local ice cream spot, evoking childhood memories with its signature palm sugar-infused soft serve. Established years ago, it has remained a go-to place for many Kuching locals, serving simple yet satisfying flavors. However, compared to newer ice cream franchises in the city that offer a wider variety and trendier menus, RG remains traditional with limited choices. Despite this, it continues to stand out as one of the best spots for classic bergula apong ice cream.

Still the soft serve taste I had many many years ago. Yummy Thank you for keeping up

The ice cream here is surprisingly good, no wonder it is long waiting queue from locals. I order the pandan flavor with pearl balls. It is so rich with pandan flavor. The balls also chewy and flavorfull. Not sweet and overly creamy. Highly recommended.

A must-have delicacy whenever i visit Kuching, the Gula Apong Ice-cream. Located in the market stalls. If you are lucky, you must definitely try the pandan-flavoured ice cream with generous toppings. p.s. Only one flavour per day, therefore you can always get the info about tomorrow's flavour from the friendly owner. Available from around 12pm to late at night, may you enjoy the sweetness that it provides.

Great taste! Also got different flavour for specific days. For vanilla lover can visit on Friday to Sunday.

Worth the long queue. Special. With the brown sugar and pandan flavour. Can add topping
