Durian For Supper

It's been years since I last had durians. YEARS. No kidding. It's just not one of those things I find myself craving. Like, ever. Maybe cos I'm not much into things that smell. And durians are just killer king kong when it comes to owning the smell department. Haha. Nevertheless, I do eat it. But usually with rice, salt, sugar and hot water. (I know it sounds damn weird but trust me, it's so much tastier that way!) Grandma's style!


Anyway, after my unproductive bridal shop visit last weekend, The Fiancé and I bought durians (two Red Prawns & one D24) at the corner of SS2 on a whim for supper with the rest of his extended family later that night. No longer is durian eaten fresh from its spiky skin like I remember. At least not in KL. Now, you get it tupperwared! Haha. How convenient! How modern! But also so very lacking in feeeeel. Like eating kuachi without skin. Yuck. Hahaha. =p

Anyhoo... picture time!

 I'm into sweet durians so I went straight for the D24.

NINE minutes later, we were all done. @_@

Finishing up with Chinese tea to wash it all down. =)

It was a tasty supper but... I think it'll be a long while till I eat durians again. Think I OD-ed and busted my annual durian quota liao. Haha. I can never get too much of the company though. =)
