Dawn of Durian II: A Return to SS2

After the durian feast last week, we decided that a durian feast is not a durian feast without ingesting the legendary "Mou Shan Wong" (Raja Kunyit). So three durian lovers (Andrew, Kok Hua and myself) set off on another foray into the wild wild world of SS2 durian stalls.

First stop was the famous SS2 Durian place (Ah Wai's stall) near the BHP petrol station. Kok Hua arrived first (very fast) and scouted the place for any available Raja Kunyit. Alas, luck was not on our side as there was only one left and the quality was sub-par (but then why are they still charging normal price for it - RM22 per kg?) So we three settled down for an appetizer of 2 XO durians (RM10 per kg, total RM32). The XO durians were as good as last week, presenting our tongues with a rich, creamy taste with some underlying bitterness. Plenty of flesh too!

Nekkid XO!

Andrew: Mmmmm...mmmmm...

Kok Hua: Oh yeah this is good durian yeah!

After cleaning the plate (or the shell?) we went over to another stall located just opposite the Hong Leong bank (formerly Lim Mee Yoke). This time we lucked out as the stall did have Raja Kunyit in stock going for RM25 per kg. Our medium sized durian cost us RM60 but it was worth every cent. Truly this was the King of Durians with superb taste (rich cream custard with a superb balance of sweetness and bitterness) and loads of flesh due to it's deformed thin seeds. If only this stall accepted credit cards...

Legendary

HO CHAK!!!

I licked the seed clean!

YUMMEH!

The aftermath...

And thus our mission was accomplished! We then went over to Medan Selera 223 for half-boiled eggs and nasi lemak...again! LOL!
