I'm sure you won't believe it if I tell you that we picked up over 30 ripened durians from san bah on last Sunday. Yes, I went back to kampung with Leong Koh and Joren Sau in a sequel trip to pick ripening durians. I can vividly recall that the last time we picked durians was during Leong Koh, Gepak and my visit to san bah approximately 9 years ago (see pic). That time, we were lucky enough if we could find 2-3 durians beneath the trees. This time around, we experienced the extraordinary 'durian runtuh' phenomenon. We opened nearly 30 durians and filled up our rice cooker with durian flesh. We tapau and distributed them among family members (Mee Tzia, Min Fui Sau and Syn Koh here. Some to be exported to Nah Nah Jye2 by bus). We have 3 trees bearing fruits at the moment. The taste is so so sweet!
