Don’t judge a durian by its cover

It’s that time of the year again when going back to my PIL’s place is fun :P Durian fest! My FIL will happily cut open the durians from his orchard.. for ME :D

Though we seldom communicate due to the language barrier, durians never fail to bring us together :)

He kopek, me makan!

Though the skin look somewhat not so nice, the insides… fuiyo I tell you, “BEAUTIFUL!”

And he’ll always give us some to bring back home.

Once back at home, guess who does the ‘kopek-ing’? ME! Coz it’s MY favourite and as for Darling…. so so only, he can’t take much of that :P

Creamy, sweet and yummy…

P/S: If you see me quiet and not hopping temporarily, it’s because my mouth is full and fingers are covered with durians :D

Have you eaten the "mau san" variety? Once you've tasted that, no other variety compares. That one is a very expensive variety.Other than that, I like the red prawn too.
