Another box of free ah lian but honestly, quality is lacking.

I am still hoping that our durian mu can take place soon but look like no more good durian for this season liao... 

Don't lose hope bro... tiagong Pahang ones coming this month.

Geylang? If you know a decent one. My impression there is chop carrot and for suckers and tourists. The one at chai chee also have a few tables.

Anyway, carbon82 is a decent guy. Don’t think he like those kind of dessert.

Wah lau..u say only lor. In the end also never turn up. 🤣

You do sales bro?

had a very nice Capri in Penang. Rm25/kg. 

small season starting in Penang. Supposed to last 4 wks or so.

[PSP415]

Bought about 10 kg at $18/kg  Pahang MSWs last night from Blk 139 Tampines St 11. 

Quality abit inconsistent. Some were opened on the spot and put aside as unripe. 

Out of the few only 1 fruit yielded very bitter taste while the rest sweet/bitter. Was told better ones coming next week. 

Took one box from the fridge earlier and flesh gao gao, creamy and more bitter than sweet. 

Prices came down from $25/28 per kg from a couple of weeks ago. 

Not related to the business or anything here or there. 

Stay safe all 

Cheers

Like what bro Hamburger advocates...to beat heatiness from too much ah lian...eat even more till the body accustom to it 😅

That is very true.. during my kid days staying in kampong.  Own supply of fresh  durian and rumbutan everyday, anytime.

Where got heaty feel..

Finally, free Citi ah lians, eaten legally in Aircon room.

As usual, cheapskate me is Free ones always good, ang moh bank give free ones even better. But honestly, this time round the ah lians are really good .

KNN, at first give one ah lian door gift, I thought hong kan liao, eat buffet only this time, no more MSW ah lian? Luckily still have still have.

Nope. I did want to try the Red Prawn. Opened up 2, sourish taste and some pods like tapioca. So, make do with MSWs. 

Probably wait awhile as the harvest seems inconsistent. Perhaps just for this stall's plantation. 

If u come across good ones, give a shout here. I like bitter bitter taste, not bittergourds ya. 

😅😋😋😋😂😂

I ordered from hamburger lobang Ah Wen.

6 MSW for $100.

Quite good, no complain.

 

[Heartlander]

Seems durian prices plummeting. My wife got lobang from her kaki to order direct from JB and Pahang plantation over last few days, after a long break. Got total of 30kg for various varirties. MSW from Pahang trump the rest from JB far far. All at very lower end of $1×/kg. Usually bulk price only few $/kg cheaper than mass retail.
