Durian D 15

Next type to be shared is the D15. To be honest, I actually don’t quite know how to differentiate the breeds of this King of Fruits. They all look almost the same to me. But if there is some colour difference, that it is easier to gauge.
This D15, is much darker in yellow color. Flesh wise is equally creamy and sweet, except that it is more moist and more mushy. But the level of pungency, still looks the same to me It is still enjoyable and just do bear in mind to take some salt water after eating them for it is said to reduce the body heat after this durian feast- according to senior folks Want more traditional way, drink with the durian husk as well

Durian D 13

The credit goes to dad again for being so thoughtful and able to read my mind, upon arrival to Penang. I think it is an easy guess as I would always crave for durian whenever am in town, so it is not hard to predict I suppose
Usually, dad would always patron this stall at Cecil street for durians. This time round, he come back with the breed of D 13, with bright yellow flesh. It is creamy, sweet and always that tasty with its very own unique aroma. It’s a case of like it or hate it

Coconut Drink

Coconut drink actually makes a real good thirst-quenching beverage especially during hot season. That satisfaction of sipping this cooling drink while you are under the hot sun is just too satisfying. Actually, the juice within the shell itself, is not apparently sweet, but rather more aromatic with the floral and coconut fragrance. It is always best to paired it with the whitish flesh within the shell that is just so silky and addictive. It is very smooth that I merely slurps it in.

Coconut Jelly

Lately it seems that I would never fail to satisfy my palate with this coconut jelly when I am paying the Pearl Island a visit. We would just go to the stall for a take-away of this dessert, for it is usually a pretty scorching hot day.

The coconut is very convenient to be sampled. The top of the husk have been managed cleanly and been opened up, for the ease of consumers, before it is wrapped by those tight air plastic layer to ensure its freshness. Hidden inside is the velvety portion of konnyaku-like jelly that is thoroughly infused with the fragrance of the coconut itself. The coconut drink seems to have solidified and is very silkly and bouncy. Quite addictive it seems like Oh ya, don’t forget to enjoy the whitish coconut flesh too

Apom Pisang

Dad is so nice to purposely get me this apom for my tea time snack, upon arrival to Penang Somehow, I start to crave for it over an equally tempting ‘Cheh Hu’, since I last ate it was few months back. The apom this time round I choose to have banana filling, for I think the unique fragrance of it helps to make the kueh more delicious. There is only two slices in the apom each, wrapped by a fluffy skin of apom, which I think would be better if not that thick. It also has the mild fragrance of coconut milk too.
