    About HUMID WITH A CHANCE OF FISHBALLS TOURS:
    “If you like our name, you’ll like our tours” is their motto.
    Founded in late 2016, Humid with a Chance of Fishballs Tours is a small grassroots independent company that strives to offer authentic and off-the-beaten path tours so tourists and expats alike can get a taste and glimpse of true local life in Hong Kong.
    As of February 1, 2019, they have amassed over 460 reviews on TripAdvisor with a 98% 5-star rating and are currently ranked #5 out of 202 companies for the Best Tours in Hong Kong.
    We run tours in Hong Kong for people that truly want to see the real, true, local and authentic sides of Hong Kong. No, we are not like Mainland China and no, we don't eat bats, civets, and dogs - we can explain all that during the tour. The stories and information we want to share is about the hole-in-the-wall owners, and about the local foods that have so much history and importance to Hong Kong. We go into shops that don't speak a lick of English, because we bridge the gap between the West and the East. Eat through Hong Kong's heritage, culture and tradition with us!

    Tekka's my favorite, It's harder to open and every tekka durian surprises me cause they taste different.
    As usual people will say, you have got to go to Malaysia during durian season and eat freshly harvested durians. I got to agree with that

    • @hongkongfoodtours
      @hongkongfoodtours  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, I really liked the Tekka too =) and honestly there was so much difference in between each of the durians. You have to find a good durian. I like the really mushy ones LOL Thanks so much for sharing =)

    Please do not eat too much Durian ! In Singapore it is illegal to carry Durian to some place ! Like. Chewing Gum ! Have a Durian Boot Leg Night Time Party Girl and Invite Me! Durian is like 24 K Gold ! Fair Dinkum ! In Canada is there Durian available ! I heard they make Durian Wine I believe it is very Intoxicating like you Baby Girl !

      Not sure, a couple of years of my mom eating it I guess... Also, I like the smell of durian as is, but I hate it when it seeps into other things in my fridge. It’s so pungent that it’ll deep into your eggs etc LOL so you have to wrap it over and over with Saran Wrap or else your fridge will stink!

    You need to try Durian at least 3 times to get used to it, even if you hate it in the beginning first few tries...
    For musang King Mao Shan Wang, the ideal size is 1.3-1.5kg size. Anything bigger is rumoured to be grown with excessive chemical fertilizers...
    An "organically" fertilized MSW usually cannot grow to 2kg size etc. Don't go for extremely larged size MSW cos the flavour will not be so intended etc
    It's abit like fish, too big and the meat is usually too tough and not "Sweet" enough but too small and it's not ripe or mature enough :)
    Don't go for MSW 1.8kg and above... 😂
