My husband and I drove over to Skudai one evening to join some Malaysian bloggers and friends for a durian buffet.
There were 40 of us and every one is a durian lover :D
The durian plantation owner and his daughter came with a truck filled with durians. So cool to sleep on a bed of durians...... hahaha
We made many new friends and had fun. We were opening durian after durain, gorging ourselves silly with the King of fruits.
We learnt how to select good durians and to identify the different species. There were some species that we have never tasted before.
A wonderful evening of delicious durians and good company ..... we returned to Singapore in the wee hours of the morning.
I loves durians, but nowaday i control myself not to eat too much...
ReplyDeleteMe too. have to cut down on durians from this year onwards, too much sugar :P
DeleteI can tell that you are really a HUGE fan of durian!
ReplyDeleteWas. Maybe I ate too much lately. LOL
ReplyDeleteA fascinating fruit for some of my foreign friends .

ReplyDeleteI usually can't eat too much in one seating so I avoid buffets and buy a few only. ;)
I had to look up what a durian was, looks like litchi. You seemed to have had a lot of fun ! 40 Bloggers ! I don't think that I could never gather so many people in Europe !
