Glad to see that your mother in law really love her first bite & taste of 🇲🇾 durian..surely she will be addicted on durian in the future..for some people, its a long way journey around the world just to be able to taste the king of fruit 😁
Your mum is so cute. Be careful she will get addicted to it. Haha usually the first phase are important after that the person will gradually fallen in love ❤️❤️.
Yeah.. you can make Durian Crepe. Just search Durian Crepe Recipe. It was famous once last 5 or 6 years ago in Malaysia. Black Torn u bought is the most expensive Varian.
Them: buying one durian and calling that "that's a lot of durians" Me: gobbling 5, 6 durians in one sitting, leading myself into durian coma and still craving for durians the next day.
For Malaysia durians, once you love it and you can't be escape. Because the superb taste will deeply in your mind forever. That's why some the durian fever purposely took a long flight ✈ to Malaysia to enjoying fresh durian just dropped from tropical trees during this amazing fruit season ..
There are so many varieties and each with its distinctive tastes . Normally better to taste two or more varieties side by side to enjoy the taste shock differences
Dont forget to join the celebration of Malaysia Day this year. The event is called "Keretapi Sarong" but it will be held on 14 Sept 2024 in KL . (Malaysia Day is actually celebrated on 16th Sept every year but this year the date clash with the Birth of the Prophet Muhammad SAW so they celebrate it earlier due to show some respect i guess) . I am really sure you will enjoy the vibe of Keretapi Sarong because it is a super fun events full of cultures, diversities and colours.
Welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾 It’s wise and smart for the seller to recommend Black Thorn for beginner especially westerners cause it’s sweeter and creamy texture. Thumbs up for mama’s courage to taste this King of fruits 👍 👏
Smart choice to have sweet species for first try. 😊 Yes the worker did show the part with no more seeds, but there are more in the other half. Can try other species with cheaper price which taste good as well 😋
We had a good time trying out the experience if we did get scammed we hope that people see it and don't go to this place. Karma is real. Thank you for watching
After a few trying you will get addicted to durians. 😂. Next time can try D24, IOI, Tekka, Musang King. Or even try Durian Kampung ( village durian). Black Torn is just too expensive.
You will not smell it after you had a first bite. I told my nephew from the States to try smelling it after his first bite and he agreed that he cannot smell it after his first bite. You can try durian ice-cream, durian mooncake, durian mochi, crepe, candy etc.
WOW. i don't buy a lot of durian, so thanx for sharing. It's a bit on the high side, i thought. but then again, i have never had the Black Thorn variety.
Thank you for watching. We also don't buy a lot of durian. We believe it was also on the expensive side but it is mom and she flew so far away. Had the try and get her the best that we could ❤️
Like the shopkeeper said, there's varieties of durian. Some are sweet/bitter/savory. For beginner you should try IOI variant since it's cheaper and the taste is sweet like Black Thorn variant 😋
You need to bring the durian seeds back to Texas & plant them there. The best place would be south Texas like Houston or Corpus Christie where the climate is closer to subtropical 😅
Most foreign travellers to Malaysia think the people they interface with or meet in the streets and stores are Malaysians. No, chances are they are not Malaysians but migrant workers from a number of countries - Indonesia and Bangladesh the main sources. For example at 2:10 this video, all the three men are migrant Bangladeshi workers. Only the Chinese lady, presumably the store's owner or daughter of the owner, is local Malaysian.
@@voyagesdiary Definitely not if they are legally documented foreign/migrant workers. I made the earlier comment merely to underline the fact that Malaysia, like USA, is host to a large number of migrant workers. Dr Mahathir, when he was Prime Minister of Malaysia in 2019, even then said there were at least 7 million migrant workers in Malaysia, mostly from Indonesia and Bangladesh. That's a large number equivalent to 22 percent of the country's population and 45 percent of the country's workforce.
Hey..Glad to see Marco is himself again😊…btw is Marco side Italian?..Just wondering..i got Italian friends who gave the same reaction first time like Marco’s mum..😅…Black Thorn is a premium durian …try XO next time..for me its nice and less expensive.
Marco is half Italian (dad) and half American (mom). Mom lived in Italy for many years so it's possible that she has picked up on some Italian reactions 😂. You can also hear some Italian in the video
LOL your mom want to put salt on durian😅😂 first time I heard that..black torn is one of the most expensive durian in Malaysia but durian lovers don't care, at Hong Kong they sell blackthorn for 700-800 hk= rm400-rm500(around 100 USD)but its still sold out
Yes, it wasn't cheap. Maybe cheaper if we would have went to ss2 or ttdi but since grandmother was there and Marco recently getting out of the hospital we didn't want to go too far but thank you for watching our video
it is really nothing compared to some japanese melon that cost more than RM1k per kilo. you pay top dolar for top durian. nonetheless its high time for a standardized classification for durian, really.
So,I assumed you were going to bully your mother with Durian. However, she appears to have no issues with smell or texture.She can handle it. And then..she realized the durian cost $40, she cried "OMG"..I'll handle it with two of hands....Your mom is so adorable. By the way, refrain from taking too much durian because it causes your body hotter, and don't drink Coca-Cola after taking durian. Some people experience reactions to their body. Welcome to KL,have enjoyable family time in Malaysia!🎉🎉🎉
u still haven't open the bottom part, still got more durian down there, the seller worker should just open all for you since you're a foreigner and wouldn't know it.
Basically we got scammed? He did show a portion during the cutting that no longer had anything inside. You can see it quickly in the beginning portion of the video
I don't think it's their intention to scam you, that shop foreign worker must be lazy since they treated u guys like locals, like u would know how to open it all by yourself. Next time, ask the seller to tear all the sections fully open for you beforehand.
yes the durian your mum ate actually can still be opened up in the middle and there is some more extra durians to eat after you open it up in the middle.maybe they scammed you or the worker is inexperienced and not knowledgeable about durians judging by the way he opened and served the durian to you. @@voyagesdiary
@@voyagesdiary just some trivial info for you about durian. If you want to remove the smell of durian from your hands after touching the flesh, just wash your hands with the durian seed with water💧, use it like a soap 🧼. The wax from the seed will remove the odor of durian itself😊
Black Thorn is the most expensive. Durian is great when made into ice cream there's a San Francisco ice cream parlor visited by the late Anthony Bourdain that has Durian as one of the flavours.
Hi, actually there's still some inside the other half of your durian. The staff there should tell you and help you open it especially when your durian is quite expensive ( understandable since it's at city centre). Thanks.
As a Malaysian i ate durians so many years ago so the taste of malaysian clon duriann is very sweet,good texture and etc....I tried to eat durian in indonesia and thailand but i cannot get the aroma sweet because it is tasteless. So for tourist you can compare the taste durian in malaysia much more sweet more aroma .
Black thorn durians are selling at premium price. Too expensive even for locals. Musang King is also expensive. Next time go for Red Prawn or Tekka durians. They are also very good but less expensive. More affordable & worthwhile.
even we malaysia just eat like cheap durian. u eat the most expensive and delicious one. usually people from indonesia come to eat durian . they spend so much money bcoz here cheap consider to their country. bcoz indonesia import durian from malaysia. so its 3x expensive than that rm175
@voyagesdiary durian buffets are of mixed varieties. We hv over 200 varieties in malaysia. Village durian, jungle durian, tekka, xo, musang king, D101, D24, red prawn etc etc. Black thorn is too expensive to put on a buffet table.
Durian kampong or lower grade is bad if you wanna introduce someone to 1st time eating durian. Only musangking or blackthorn or high grade is good. But as malaysian citizen, i EAT ALL DURIAN because we already familiar with it yummyyy. If the taste not that great, love to make into bubur durian 😂❤ or cendol
Black Thorn durian is the most expensive. However only fruits from an old durian tree in Penang is worth the price. Fruits from other Black Thorn trees taste like Red Prawn.
@@voyagesdiaryMalaysian Musang King durians imported into China are being sold at a premium rate of RM350 (US$81) per fruit. China is one of the main export markets for Malaysian durians, with the export value reaching 887 million Malaysian ringgit ($187.9 million) in 2022.
Agree . I had tried one Durian Kampung like 30 years ago and I can still remember that taste till today. Special tree and the filling is milky white and it also taste like milk .. Wonderful experience and till today I can't find that kind of Durian kampung no more.
@@voyagesdiary as a southeast Asian, the variety of cheese here is quite limited Also the culture of cheese is pretty new Yet I dont think even the locals really compare the taste as much alike with cheese....
To avoid durian smell in your mouth, upset stomach and get "drunk" of eat too much durian, you can pour drinking water into the hollow inner shell and gargle in your mouth, drink it. (This is my secret passed down for generations).
My hubby has a good friend from US visiting us few years ago and we had him try durian. The poor guy had to brush his teeth a few times after that to get rid of the smell 😅
I think there’s a miscommunication/misunderstanding there. Perhaps the workers assume that you know, but they only dish out half of the durian open to you, and you are expected to open the other half of the durian yourself, you can see that they already pre-opened the other half for you. Perhaps you left assuming that you have finished all, and they assumed that you no longer wish to finish the durian (my assumption)
@@voyagesdiary Yeah, if they failed to check with you, then that’s a minus on customer service. Price wise, although it’s more expensive then other locations, but they do have to pay for a more premium rental, and your durian is a Grade A above from what I can see in the video, so not too much different from other options. You may find a cheaper selection at some other other place, but usually at a lower grade/yield. As a local, I am only willing to pay for grade C and below lol 😅

You can eat durian with bread and hot tea that how ''Sarawakian people'' eat durian ma'am
The price you paid was a little on the high side. If you venture to SS2 where loads of stalls are, you'd pay much less.
Uiiiiiii..lagi santai kawanx2...Malaysia boleh dikkkk 😊😊😊
Black thorn is so expensive.. but the taste is so absolutely worth it😂😂😂
Durians are simply scrumptious
Glad that ur mom likes it
It grows on you
Yes, she had no problem
It cost more in KLCC area. You could get it 3 times less in the out skirts.

5 or 6? That is crazy!
Black thorn durian is the black truffle equivalent of mushrooms.
There are more inside the unopened shell. You have to pry it open by hand. Its not that difficult to open.
TRY IOI DURIAN, SWEET AND CREAMY TASTE 👍🇲🇾
musang king n duri hitam @ black thorn are premum top favorite ..worth trying

She's a champion!
hahaha..you are different..i mean some people couldnt bear the smell..while others like it..most locals love durian..really
😆
Haha I want to try it at least once, but I'm scared! 😂 How does Mom like Malaysia?
Don't be. You can also go to bigger stalls where they sell smaller pieces of different kinds of durian

To know Malaysia is to love Malaysia
❤️❤️❤️
Funs fact.. Without durian kampung. This expensive variety durian cannot even managed to even Exists.
Apart from Musang king, there's other piers like black thorn, red prawn, XO, Holo (gourd), these are the species from Balik Pulau of Penang island.
Yes, so many options
The perfect blackthorn orange yellow round firm.. yup thats it

Great suggestion!
Should try Musang King😂
Her at first try: not bad
2nd try with two gloves on: Good!
Btw I think there's more durian inside...u didn't open it!
Had to do the whole experience before a true rating
Black Thorn durian is the most expensive. However only fruits from an old durian tree in Penang is worth the price. Fruits from other Black Thorn trees taste like Red Prawn.
Is it still the season? maybe when we go to Penang we can try it
Exactly . Old trees durian just taste better and it's not just BT. MK as well.
I’m contented with kampung & ioi durian. Sometimes I eat kunyit at durian farm. Never paid more than 50 ringgit 😂
Is the price correct? That seems awfully expensive.
During smells bad if it stay longer maybe 2 days after harvesting or dropping from tree.
Hi Guys, in term of sweetness & creamy, musang king is better. You may ask Kumaar Family to know more about Malaysia durian.😊
