imagine some friends....drive up to malaysia and feast on durians day and night at different locations....and enjoy the view as well.....this can be an annual pilgrimage timed alongside durian season....

what a joy...it would be....

as u can see....singaporeans are more discerning in our tastes for durians...

thai durians are not among our favourite kinds...

Image

now, we realize why our PRC friends dont know about the real malaysian durians.... those they sell in china are mainly imported from thailand...

personally, thai durians are so synthetic tasting...

Uniquely Singapore; and hence our Esplanade also enjoys this name.
1. Always wait for the setup. NO SETUP; NO TRADE

2. The trend will END but I don't know WHEN.

did u know ......


The fruit bat is an important pollinator and seed dispenser and traditional farmers in Malaysia know that one of the species, the Dawn bat, is a very effective pollinator of durian flowers which is why they say, 'No Bats, No Durians'. Yet this harmless creature has been hunted for its flesh, for sport and even as a crop pest!
