Yesterday I had the strongest craving for durian (thanks to one Red FM listener who went and put a picture of a gorgeous looking durian as her Facebook profile pic) that when my best buddy said he was game to have a durian session with me, I jumped at the chance!
We were both hungry – he hadn’t lunch and I hadn’t had dinner so we made our way to SS2 to fill our rumbling tummies with the King of Fruits!
We went to a place that had a banner saying www.durianss2.com
I like how the place is set up with the different variations of durian neatly aligned for display; there are ample tables and stools set up and there’s a sink to wash your hands in (too bad no soap, although no amount of soap can remove that smell off your fingers!).
When I came back from the sink, I found to my delight, a whole bunch of opened durian already waiting for me.
My buddy was so hungry, he didn’t even wait for me! But then again, when I saw how beautiful those durians looked, I couldn't blame him!
We also ordered coconut water each and it was the most delicious and sweetest coconut I’ve ever tasted!!! EVER!!
But it was when I took my first bite of durian that I truly felt I was in durian heaven. It was SO good to finally get to enjoy the wonderful, custardy, sweet, lemak taste of the durian after so long!!! I was grinning from ear to ear!! We polished off the durians, one segment after another. And that was our dinner! Let me tell you, coconut water doesn’t taste as nice after that!
As much as I love mangosteens, I was just too full after that but they certainly looked good!
Anyway, I puas hati oredi! Hee....
