Hail to the king of fruits. Durians, one of my favorite fruits amoung many others hehe. Here I'll introduce some of my favourite durian treats :)
Number 1 on the list: Puteri Mas Durian Puffs
Where?: Open daily. 475 Joo Chiat Road. Tel: 6344 8629
What makes their durian puffs irresitable? They cram a whole big scoop of real good quality durian. They are I must say the best durian puffs I have eaten. You have to go grab some NOW!
Like some say: "Die die must try"
Number 2 durian treat: Durian smoothie found at A1 Chendol
Where?: Found at Tampines St 82, across Temasek Polytechnic
The durain smoothie is just a wonderful treat for anyday. They cramm into the cup 2 to 3 huge tablespoons of real durian topped with a generous helping of durian ice-cream, blended up, and ta ta one durian smoothie! It is best drank right away. The owners of the shop are really nice people, who when the shop is not too busy will strike conversations with their customers. Heard that peope all the way from woodlands drive down for a durian smoothie.
They also serve many other drinks, from the normal array of bubble tea, to a wide range of coffee and chocolate blens to smoothies like durian, yam, mango, mixed fruits etc. o and of cause chendol. wow the red beans on the chendol are huge.
Number 3 goes to: Scoopz an ice-cream shop
Where?: Parkway Parade#B1-154
The ice-cream is hand made on freezing pans. The flipping and massaging of the mixture results in ice cream that is dense and smooth. The durian ice-cream is good. There is a rich durian taste, not like those artifical flavours. Try it I doubt you will regreat it.
NOT!!!!
Dino Cake House & Cafe
I saw a eating programme on channel 5, I think it was coffeetalks and hawker woks the show hosted by Fiona Xie. Fiona Xie and her guest star, can't remember who it was, where happily chowing down on a durian well. It is a sponge cake with a whole in the center(like a well) filled with durian. After watching the show, I had to get my hands on a durian well, and finally did. Guess what: bleach! Not good at all! The durian inside the "well" tasted artifical, I think they used some durian mix or something, tasted like durian flavoured cream. Not going there again!.
