Vesak Day Durian Party

Vesak day Durian Party - 29th May 2018

Once more, succulent durians from Huang Kiat's supplier at Hougang Blk 682

This end-May is short season for durian (two weeks). Actual season in July. Durians are Black Thorn from Genting Highlands (mid mountain). 

Thin husk, small seeds, rich yellow flavour. We also had the jin feng or Golden Phoenix. Lighter in color, slight alcohol taste, slightly milky and fibrous. Small fruit but very small seeds.

Some early birds, on-time birds, haha.

Roger Liew dropping in. We ran out of durians but HK opened a tapowed one for him. Hope HK had enuf to bring home. ;-) 

Compliments of supplier. Nice. Just ripe.

This time we insisted on compensating HK for his durians, esp for those of us who tapowed also. 

After durians, once again headed to nearby Sin Heng Kee for excellent No. 1 porridge (all too full, so tapowed to go). 

Lucky not so crowded as we went there before the dinner crowd. Still, we waited for 14 mins. Tong and Alex packed for their families too.
