Durian @ Balik Pulau, Penang

i love Durian,
and i'm no.1 durian lovers.

with creamy flesh range from sweet to slight bitter,
punget, pleasent smell for few miles,
i had try jungle numbers of different species of durians ever since i was a baby,
D 11, D 24, IOI,  susu, raja kunyit(Mao Shan Wang, King of Civet Cats), ang hea(D 175), etc...

Yet,
i could never ever able to resist the seductive of Durian, King of fruits.

On the second day in Penang,
my brother promised to bring me a visit to Balik Pulau, Penang.
it was during the full swing of durian season,
and the durian feasts was held too.

According from my bro,
he said that Balik Pulau's durians were the top quality durian in Malaysia.
Oh my God,
how could i missed that??
Of cause,
i will never missed that...hehe

When we reached Balik Pulau,
we stopped at several stalls in order to hunt for "ho bak" durian.
There are a few species of durian which i never try before,
which named hor lor, kapit and etc..


On that trip itself,
i think my bro had bought about 30 durians,
which costs almost RM 300- RM 400.
But,
i would said that it worth.
The durian in Balik Pulau was the best "ho bak" durian i ever try,
and "Ang Nae/Red prawn" will be my top listed favorite durian.
