Finally, I managed to eat some durians albeit at the tail end of the Balik Pulau Durian Season in Penang :-)
At the Mt Erskrine wet market, I checked out the Capri aka Bak Yu and yummy, it was nice and creamy. Later at night, Krystle just loved it and said that she loved the creaminess of Capri.
Yesterday, at the same stall, I tasted the recommended 808 and yes, it was kinda sweet and creamy.
Next, I was offered Green Thorns aka Cheh Chee aka Lin Fong Chiao but I declined as I did not like it and I was kinda surprised that he also has Lipan, one of my favourites :-)
We took a vote at night and whilst me and Tracey preferred Lipan for its "khor liam", Kimberley and Krystle voted for 808 for its sweetness and creaminess. In addition, Krystle said that Capri was more creamy. BTW, I forked our RM 17 for the 808 and RM 8 for the Lipan and yes, durians taste nicer after some time in the fridge.
