Spinelli_ck 6th Gear June 19, 2014 Share June 19, 2014 Anybody hv directions to Kampung Liew Lian? Or can recommend durian stall or whatever in Pontian? TIA he probably meant non-branded durians. last year, there was an organised trip to a small durian farm at Pekan Nanas. check out http://www.pekannanas.com. i was there on another occasion. the quality of the durians ranged from decent to good. however i understand it received mixed reviews from forumers who participated in the organised trip. if you are going there, try to be early. say 10am. alternatively, you may want to check out a no signboard durian shop manned by a Chinese uncle at Gelang Patah. it is opposite the Shell petrol kiosk. somewhere before Restoran Tian Lai. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kangadrool Supersonic June 22, 2014 Share June 22, 2014 (edited) I prefer mangosteen. Very soothing and very good for throat. Eating even 1 seed of Durian can cause a lot of odour. Even squeezing your nose, face will squeeze out the smell. Too much fermentation. Edited June 22, 2014 by Kangadrool Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing with durian plantations that cater to tourism is never go in a big group or coincide when there's are tour buses. You never get fresh durians. . As long there is a huge group, the owner has to plan to have enough durians to meet the tourist demand, and at the same time enough to export. On the day of feasting, the freshly drops one are likely to be exported, so they don't get fermented too soon when they reached singapore. While the tourist most likely get mixed batch of fresh drop, and durians collected over the last few days. This is my experience even with the fermented, when I go with my firends with only 3 cars. When we are the only guests there (usually week days), the durian are fresh. But come weekends when we arrived together with the tour buses, the durians are most too wet, can tell they are over night. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
