Durian and more Durian! Let us FEAST on the King of Fruit

Let us feast on the King of Fruit! Durian season is here again. In 2018, there is a bumper crop from Malaysia.  Plentiful durian supply, and hence the price has come down.  At this store in Clementi Town Centre, the Mao Shan Wang durians were selling for $12/kg.

Here are 2 videos taken on consecutive weekends.  Business was brisk.  There were many onlookers too. Watch the guys expertly opening the durian.  Onlookers were salivating.


Another video of the same store in Clementi.


Do I eat durians?  Well, yes, but I don't buy them.  I just eat them when my fellowship group decides to do a durian party.


Yet another Durian party, this time from 2015. How time flies, we have durian parties every year! (Since durian season comes every year.)


Enjoy!

Durian "Cat Mountain King" Feast 猫山王榴莲大餐

Fascinating to see Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong execute some durian diplomacy in Singapore, on the occasion of a recent visit by Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbot.


Check out this one arm Durian lift by PM Abbot. Don't underestimate the thorns. I have tried this move and it can get rather painful on the palm, if you are not careful. I can assure you that if PM Abbot throws that durian at you, don't catch.


Here is our 猫山王榴莲大餐, Mao Shan Wang durian feast.


Thanks for watching!
