Was actually intending to ride but brake pads are bald and I dont have the time to visit the workshop.
A very leisure drive, I decided to exit the highway at the 1st exit of Yong Peng, to try my luck on durian. Glad I did.
The make shift stall only has 1 variant of durian, D24. On asking, it was RM15/kg.
I picked 2 durians, I'm hungry...
This piece was alright. There are only 3 seeds. Taste wise, the flavour was floral and sweet with mild bitterness. It was good enough.
Oh my... oh.... darn..... it a really damn good!!! I'm blown over! The strong D24 taste that I've not had for a really really long time. I cant ecen recall having had this knocked over D24 for so many years. I cant believe my luck. It just taste beyond my thoughts. It's just too good!
I'll rest my tummy for the rest if today and hunt in Melaka tomorrow.

Laat night and this morning, was driving around Melaka looking for durian. The old stalls I'm aware of, have disappeared. In place are some youngsters selling at a much higher price.
On average, most stalls are selling the same D24 for RM36/kg and MSW at RM68/kg. CRAZY!!!! That's an absolute ripped off. Thats S$12/kg for D24 and S$23/kg for MSW.
Obviously they are targeting ignorant foreign consumers since Melaka are well populated by tourist on weekends, and possibly the largest crowd are Singaporeans.
I guess, those Singaporean consumers who patronized l, are quite immune to such prices and when on holiday, finances doesnt come into play thus wouldn't mind the higher price than back home?
The road side stall (outside Portugese settlement) I approached this morning, told me... ok they have cheaper variant of D24 at RM25/kg which they claimed, are young trees (while old trees are going at RM36/kg).
Ya Right!!! Tell that to others. I didnt want to debunk him in his face... sometimes I rather just STFU and smiled (ya conn others)...
So, be warned. Dont be the next 'robert' (sings in a creepy unknown tone... it ain gonna be me, and who knows who shall it be)
