durian

Love it or hate it, this beauty is regarded the King of Fruits in this part of the world. The durian may have a strong odour which puts people off, but once you get past the smell to taste the creamy flesh – well, need I say more? 😉

Leong (our photographer) managed to capture this man in action. He usually sets up his stall along Jalan Canning Estate. Incidentally, Osbourne Street was once known as ‘Durian Street‘; do they still sell durians there? I haven’t seen any stalls there lately….

…pictures such as this one make your mouth water! 😉

Yes, these people are ‘paying tribute’ to the King of Fruits in their very own kitchen.

On a different note, observe the background – the different containers/jars which were once found in (almost) every local home.

We thank Charlie Choong for this picture.
