A Durian a Day, Takes my Sore Throat Away!

Yesterday, after an appointment with my customer and dropping by the office to settle some issues, I went over to Tesco Mutiara to shop for my household groceries. I caught a whiff of something familiar when I reached the vegetable section. I was grinning from ear to ear when I saw some durians on sale! LOL! They were selling 4 packets of durians for RM10 (USD 3) and I immediately grabbed 4 nice packets before anyone does! Muahaaha ha haha aha! Actually I wasn’t feeling well and have a little bit of sore throat. Durians are very heaty, so I guessed only my wife and daughter would be enjoying all of them! Then, I quickly went home and drank lots of water. I only had one durian last night. Sob sob sob! Luckily my sore throat went away today and..........I had some nice creamy sweet durian with rice for lunch! Mmmmmmmm, simply delicious! Taste good with sambal belachan! Ha ha ha!

Durian with rice? Are you serious? Thats new!

But I guess if durian with bread makes a fine desert, then I should probably try this real soon.

4 pieces in 1 pack for RM10, suspiciously cheap leh... nice kar? Did you inspect nicely, might discover durian worm inside, lol!
But I must reckon the idea of mixing rice, durian and sambal together is awesome lar~!! Drooling already!
