Good video, but a rather negative ending though....I'm heading to the farm in a few months! It's amazing there!

Since in from malaysia, my favourite durian is 'durian kampung'. Since i cannot handle durian well, thats why i think durian kampung is the best. The durian itself is pretty small, has big seed, thin cream and very sweet in taste. Idk but other kind of durian kinda making me sick. The inside is too much and it's making it hard to swallow. And i find it pretty hard to find the sweet and delicious one. As for durian kampung, most of it taste really good and creamy and the amount is just nice.

Best durian? The best durian in Malaysia is in Pahang which hold THE best durian also called the Musang King.

The footage was great, I just wish she would have been more descriptive in her narration-- ie. What did it taste like??? That is why we watch it.

Just so you know Durian is in season now.

it's best when you eat durian on the flooor or at a gazebo when it rains :)

I approached it step by step - pastry, fruit cup (didn't know it had durian in it), ice cream - THEN the actual fruit. And it took a few days to get that far. And now - I'm a durian fanatic!
