Ender Hypersonic July 31, 2019 Share July 31, 2019 How is this one compared to 717 at highland center? Just bought three durian from 717 at $20/kg last night. Looking for better places around north area. i assume 717 are those guaranteed good one, like the 818?. Means even if the durian is good, you just say don't like the taste and they will change for you type of service? Like that 717 is sure win. So I don't think the hougang can be better is that sense. But durian wise should be the same bah. But when they have black gold, it good. Else to be safe, get from Ah Teck, the stall beside. Good honest guy, his durian always good stuff. but not cheap.

Ender Hypersonic July 31, 2019 Share July 31, 2019 4pm wanted to make another kopi ah lian, but ended up eating the ah lian and drank the kopi instead... Like FCW mentioned, don't waste good MSW on making kopi or roti, use the cheaper puree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ender Hypersonic July 31, 2019 Share July 31, 2019 Seems like not tail end of the seaosn yet.

Not too long ago, it was the bigger (2.5kg and above), rugby shaped MSW that were getting labelled as WZW, this was to priced them higher than the smaller MSW. Taste like normal MSW, but you get higher yield of pods. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good honest guy, his durian always good stuff. but not cheap. 717 got their own ah lian pastry and puree, so those customer rejects can all go there, they not worry one. The other ah beng stalls usually dont have such lobang, so they have to tell and sell every ah lian they open... Product wise I also think about the same.

Yah I tried already, still prefer to eat the ah lian on its own... I dont mind trying D13 in the kopi tho... Bloody last night the 5 boxes, kept half, now all gone liao, my son hoot 40% of the remaining just now... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tohto Hypersonic July 31, 2019 Share July 31, 2019 Friday going for yearly health check. Don't dare to touch durian for 1 week+ already, scare cholesterol and sugar shoot up for blood and urine test. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ender Hypersonic August 1, 2019 Share August 1, 2019 (edited) Good honest tips from 99 old tree. He also recommend to get even round shaped, or rugby shaped type for more tield of pods. Advise not to take too heavy durian, around 2kg will do. My safe bet is around in between 1.6 to 2 kg. Some of those video by other seller, usually say the odd shape has better taste, but in reality is they don't want too many customer to reject those odd shaped ones, else they sell to who if everybody don't want odd shape durian? I notice those ah beng seller they will always select odd shape for you, especially when you getting from the cheaper pile, just so they can clear these unpopular odd shape one fast. Also most seller tips usually say the big heavy ones are better (like WZW). Edited August 1, 2019 by Ender ↡ Advertisement 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
