Durian City

Davao City is also carrying the name Durian City. Durian, the “queen of fruits” - smells like hell and tastes like heaven. Is that really so? The question of the week: “Do you like Durian?” No matter, where you are living in the Philippines, do you enjoy the taste of heaven or don’t you?

How about me? Mmh, I love Durian since the first moment I visited Davao City in 1982. People told me, that if one love Durian, he or she might be back in the Philippines - forever!!!

  1. Hi Klaus - I, of course, LOVE Durian! It doesn’t stink, it has a wonderful fragrance!

    I have one small correction for you…. Durian is the KING of fruits! Mangosteen is known as the Queen of Fruits.

  2. Hi Bob, thanks for the correction. So we both also love both, the queen and the king, haha :lol:

  3. Hello Klaus,

    I cannot deal with the smell or taste. I don’t believe that I will ever aquire a taste for this fruit.

    regards

  4. love it. cannot get enough of it, if i were to choose my last meal on earth, it’d be a plateful of durian and a 12 oz. coke to wash it down.

  5. Klaus,
    I tried Durian once and thought I would gag. Bob can contest to that. What I disliked most was the way the taste coats your tongue like garlic does and you need something stronger to wash it away.
    Well there are things I do not like to eat here and there is probably things Filipinos do not like of American foods.

  6. Hi Harvey, how would the world looks like, if we all ahave the same taste and opinion? Thanks for dropping by. :lol:
    Hi Macky, yup, I heard about it. Enjoy it and just don’t imagine any health problems!!! :roll: :lol:
    Hi Bruce, thanks for stopping by. I experienced the same at the beginning. It will leave you after 6, 7, or even more tries… I am not sure. But for me, it did… :roll: :lol: :lol:
