Durians!

After all the tempting fb post
I finally got my craving satisfied!

although they sell durians here 
at the asian supermarket (10€/kg)
I dont have the confidence to:
- choose a good one
-carry spikey fruit in metro
so, I bought a box of frozen durian!

Initially I was afraid that it wont be good
since vietnamese version of durian is hard
they claim our version of durians is over-riped
with the asian supermarket full of vietnamese stuff
I was worried that it will be their version of durian

After 2-3hrs of thawing,
I was happy to smell the familiar stink
and super glad the flesh was soft!
in the end, it tasted the same
as our normal durians!

Husband dont mind the smell
and finally tasted his first durian
well, in singapore he tasted durian puree
I will say he is very brave
he wanted to vomit at first bite
but thereafter enjoyed it
and want to share my precious durian

It is not cheap (5€/box of 4 seeds)
but im glad to know I can have durians!
