Victorine - Diary of Life

As u can see from the title, it’s durian day! At least, this day is coming, me and my sister booked for one day trip to Durian Plantation at Tangkak, Malaysia. This is my second trip to Malaysia and the first time trip for my sister.

We took bus to Kembangan  (This event is organized by Kembangan CC) at 6.15 in the morning, we supposed to wake up earlier so we don’t have to be in a rush ;p. We were then, proceed to Woodland checkpoint, though it’s weekend but it’s not as crowded as Dora told me before. After that we took breakfast at Johor Baru (JB) and shopping at Yong Peng. Not really much to tell, coz there’s nothing really special there.

We were so excited after we reached durian plantation, there are about 3 or 4 bus coach when we arrived there (1 coach is about 30-40 people). So, we had to compete with more than 100 people there, hahaha, no lar, I don’t like to eat like I have never been eating for few days :p. Anyway, there were plenty of durians of different types for you to choose (I am not really understand bout durian type, whether it is D24, D26 or D99 or whatever, I only know sweet taste and bitter taste durian).

Durian Truck

U can really eat till u drop

As we had predicted before, we didn’t know how to start and how to get our durian ;). Later we found out that there are peoples waiting to help us ‘open’ the durian and we had to pick our own durian from a truck. How can we choose a durian???? We only know how to eat, hehehe. Me and sis then took one of it and asked them to open it. We then being told that it was Durian Monthong, a wellknown as an expensive and nice durian in Jakarta, but here we found out that Monthong will be the last choice for SIngaporean. Hahahaha, we have been fooled all this long, but it’s true, u won’t like Monthong anymore if you try the other durians here.

After sometimes, seeing peole tasting so many durian, we could only questioning how did they get it, hehehe. I think some aunties and uncles there also noticed us, later they get us a lot of durian (from different types!) for us to try. We were really phaise, but at least we tried those durian at last! hahaha. The taste was sooooooooo nice, my favourite one is bitter yet mouth watering one :). And we really ate till we drop, we gave up at 7 or 8 pieces (please note it’s piece, not the whole durian :p). I thot we are not qualified enough to be a big fans of durian, some of them are really creamyyyy so u were not be able to eat much.

And at night we had seafood dinner at Orang Asli (included in the package), also not very special to me. After dinner, we went back to Sing and arrived at about 11.30 p.m. We didn’t really take much picture here, since we were busy eating durian
