Where to find cheap, honest durian sellers?

[garlic]

As the topic suggests, anyone can intro good, honest durian sellers who wont sell overly expensive for good durians? I know there are the usual geylang, balestier uncles but selling very the expensive. Me looking for those heartland stalls where they are honest, selling authentic "Mao Shan Wang" and not trying to fool us. Anyone can share where their usual durian stalls are?

Geylang lorong 35, there's a NTUC outlet there, next to it has a durian stall, the guy very nice, we bought 3 for $10, eat there, 1 was bad. We decided to buy another 3 to bring home, the guy asked how was the durian, I said 1 was not nice, he gave me 4 durians to take back. Very honest MY chap.

Wah lao eh. The last time my friend ask me to eat durians and we ended up feeding mozzies at Gambas or Mandai. Then we headed to Bukit Batok to feed the mozzies again. No more. We suspected someone waited there last night just after the rain. Forget it.

Exactly! really hard to find.. that's why must gather the power of Bros here...

Don't tell me everytime you all wanna eat durians all go geylang meh? Those around your estate not have? I have one stall to recommed at Jurong West, Blk 502. There is a stall there selling durians, not by the weight but by number. Bought 2 med sized "Mao Shan Wang" for 20 bucks and he gave one small one for free. So, its $20 for three. The durian is authentic and value hard to beat.

(I dont stay near the area, but was visiting an uncle, address might not be pinpoint, but it's around there.)

That "combat durian" in Balestier super expensive. It basically Mao Shan wang and I paid something like $18/KG.. Now I totally don't buy in sinkieland but in JB. Cheapest MSW I got was Rm13/kg last month.

The durian season over liao. Now the durians are smaller and the price has gone up. Many parts of Malaysia now underwater, especially Pahang, Trengganu and Kelantan and parts of Johor.

What's so nice about durians? I'd rather eat mangoes.

Bro, if u stay in the north area, can try this stall Sembawang Durian Seng (三巴旺榴莲胜) @ Jalan tampang opp. Sambawang shopping mall. This uncle quite friendly and sell all varieties. He was featured in wanbao for giving away over 1,000kg of*durians*to celebrate his 60th birthday.

<<honest durian seller>>

Dis is what dey Ingerleesh expert say is an oxymoron.

There are no "honest" durain sellers.



Durain 101:

1. Hold the durain and smell. as shown in the pic. If you smell green vegetation smell means its not ripe yet. If you smell a mild durain smell instead
means its ripe and ready to be eaten.
2. Hold the durain with 2 hands and shake. (shake the durain & NOT your body ahahaahha ..! )
If you feel nothing means its too wet and sticky meaning either its too ripe or not ripe for eating yet. If you feel balls shaking inside means its loose and not sticky that's the one you want !!
3. Don't take broken & rotten ones, its common sense.

Happy duraining !

 

[nirvarq]

Sometimes the stall owner will scold you "Ooei don't shake the durains leh will spoilt it" !! That's bullshit, he knows you know and he don't like you because you're going to take away the good ones...:p

An honest durian seller?

Isn't that a myth like the caring MP?

Or the upright used car salesman?

It is a myth, either they play hanky panky with the weighing scales..or some play hanky panky with the "fruits", one famous out of favor, 'durian seller' will attest to this! ha ha ha
