Mango Pomelo Sago; a tribute to Barbara

When visiting Ah Chew Restaurant in Singapore last month, I hooked up the taste of mango that listed of the menu. It's so yummy and fresh.

Searching google what is Mango Pomelo Sago; the dessert is actually come from Hongkong and created in 1984 by lei garden restaurant, that I read from Gourmet Traveller88's blog.

Anyway, I have already bought sago, mango and pomelo, that easily available in Jakarta, so here we go for the dessert.
Pomelo in bahasa Indonesia we call it Jeruk Bali, and the mango for the dessert use Harum Manis because of the sweet taste and fragrance.
