- That's what we've always wondered, so come along as we wander the streets of Kuala Lumpur and finally give ourselves the Durian experience we've long been looking for! We know that Westerners typically aren't fond of Durian, which scared us a bit before jumping into trying it. Curious what the result of this endeavour was? Let us know if you were surprised what we thought of the King of Fruits!
Huge shoutout to Eric for being our Durian guide through the entire experience at Durian BB. You made us feel so welcome & ensured we had a memorable time! Here's the link to this location: durianbb.com.m...

Malaysian durians are top in the world. Durian comes from malay word duri. Meaning thorn.
It is not only waiting for it to ripen and drop, we hv many variety to eat. Yummy. So no other countries in South east asia can match up. Not vietnam , not philippines, not indonesia, and not thai.
for me i like Durian Udang Merah or Tekka better, it has more balance in flavor and able a person to eat a lot haha
Haven’t heard of that one. We’ll have to look! 😁
no worries on which variant you prefer, thats the beauty of msian durians. theres actually a lot more you can try. If you happened to visit Borneo Sarawak try their kampung durian called 'Isu'. and yes you are absolutely right about the difference of taste between msian durians and others. the taste of them ripening naturally on trees is incomparable.
Reading your comment just made us want durian again😋. We will be going to Sabah. Hopefully they have the Isu there 🤞
the best part about durians is that the flavour profile makes it the key to your preference hence imho not one can be better than the other. i mean yes, musang king is the sweetest and creamiest and has the most velvet texture in my book, but because it is so, you cant have too much of it (kinda like having too much caramel).. i'd rather go sometimes with something milder and less potent like red prawn or my personal favourite XO-- yes the one that taste like as if there's alcohol in it. XD
Totally agree that it’s a matter of personal preference. It still is amazing to us that there is such a difference in taste between the different varieties.
We’ll have to try them all before we choose a favourite!
Welcome to Malaysia. I think liking Durian is an acquired taste, it grows on you the more you try it, and eventually you will be addicted to it hahaha
We can see that! Already wanting to try more varieties 😋
sometimes I feel that durian is not an acquired taste, just other country messing it up by plucking it before it ripes. xD
However black thorn is the most expensive compared to musang king.
D13, D24, Red prawn, tekka and ioi also famous durian in malaysia.
Noted!
Glad you enjoyed Durian.
Those who are repulsed by durian basically has alot of psychological preconditioning. In another word, narrow minded, brainwashed, prejudiced.
But like or dislike are just personal taste preference.
I think it’s a texture thing for a lot of people. It’s very different from other foods.
All we know is that we are glad we gave it a fair chance and can’t wait to come back for more! 😋
Opening of new business also needs a lion dance, not only Chinese new year.
Ohhhh, that’s probably what it was!
A durian taste like durian! Each variety taste like the variety! I dont understand why westerners keep trying to associate durian taste with other food. It just does not make sense!
Why does it taste weird? What is weird or not weird? Durian taste like durian!!!!!!!
Can’t argue with that!
The Best Durian in the world.....with 200++ varieties = Malaysia
This is factual 👆
Why would durian ever give you diarrhea?
I thing too much of any fruit will do that, to be fair 😅
I enjoy every type of durian, as long as its free. 😂😂
Free always tastes the best 😜
Enjoy yr durian while Its in season .Of all durians, XO definately is my favourite .
We will definitely have more! Couldn’t believe how much the XO tastes like vodka!
If you made it to the end of the video - let us know if we should conduct that fun experiment 😉
Welcome back to Malaysia. Do enjoy your stay
Thank you so much. We are enjoying it very much!
Hahaha the durian way is: try it till you like it. Really surprised there a varieties of that fruit hahaha omg, nice idea with the tasting
So true haha. We definitely acquired the taste. Sad it’s so hard to find outside of SE Asia 😢
Yeah same here, tried musang king i will never go back to other durian. It is the king.
For a good reason! I give all other durian the side eye now 😒
Yes durian bb Park. The best in kl
Black thorn is my fave too... musang king can be very intense
Soo good! 😋
oh man this is awesome this is what I wanted to do! awesome :0
It was a very cool experience. I think we have officially acquired the taste for durian 😋
practice makes perfect guys
One day we will master durian eating 😋
Hurray musang king
Soo good! No one told us about the insane energy boost durian gives you either 💪
@@activityenthusiasts it is the most healthiest fruit with a lot of minerals. However, eat with moderation. Your body heat can rise, so we can drink herbal juice to cool off like coconut water, longan water etc etc.
@@activityenthusiasts I can eat 2 big fruits by myself. What you ate are pulps of a few varieties
