Durian Degustation (July 2011)

Nothing beats concluding the week of Graduation Ceremony + First day of work + Birthday + Ultimate Team bonding with a big durian feast organized by Dr. Leslie Tay from ieatishootipost.com. Durian Degustation has become almost a tradition for me & my durian Kahkis, looking forward to another awesome durian season in end of the year.

For a token sum you get the best varieties of durians such as Golden Phoenix(金凤), XO and Mao Shan Wang (猫山王)! Life with durian is good!

Nonetheless, due to the large rainfall this period, the durian texture is more watery/runny than the previous season. If you like your durian dry, pray for a trier December 2010! Anyone interested please let me know, it’s very hot stuff, we’ll try to book early as a group, heard this time’s registration is full in less than 3 hours or so.
