    Has durian only got to be a snack to kick start or dessert to wrap up? Hold your breath durian enthusiasts, think durian hor fun as the main meal, followed by a durian pancake and durian sago soup, and wash it down with an ice blended durian. Sounds too good to be true? Make your way to U Desserts and charm your taste buds like never before. The durian soup is generously loaded with pomelo, scoop of vanilla ice cream and pulp of creamy durian all drenched in a sago pearl soup. The pancake is visually pleasing and gives a smooth mouthful, similar to hor fun. For those of you who insist durian isn't your cup of tea, other never-ending choices make you no stranger to this joint too.

    Restoran Wah Cai

    Oh yes, the glorious durian puff but done with frying. Wah Cai is famous for its delicious fried durian puff, and only that. Each piece of this glorious piece of golden brown delight is enough to bring the heavens down, as the flavour is so rich and the texture being extremely smooth and creamy. Made from real D24 durian, it certainly is a dessert worth dying for.

    Fried durian craze has definitely boomed throughout Johor Bahru, and this modest restaurant plays a big part in it. Their extensive menu includes Western, local and Thai delicacies but leaving the soothing space without delving down their durian fritters would be insane. You’ll commonly spot plenty of baskets with plump golden fritters rushing off the kitchen doors, make sure nabbing one. The warm and crispy crust snuggly wraps the creamy durian that bursts to the fore at each bite, imprinting a moment that lives in your core memory forever.

    Sofie Cendol (New & Fresh)Pork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21

    Durian and cendol together? Now that’s a sinfully satisfying dessert that is nothing short of delicious. This humble stall at the heart of Taman Suria has been doling out a range of cendols that gets a nod from all walks of life, especially those who go head over heels for durian. The icy concoction is bathed with Gula Melaka and coconut milk, and liberally loaded with pandan-grass jellies and red beans, then the show-stopping moment, an ambrosial piece of durian is perched atop. The creamy flesh blissfully binds with the whole dish, pumping in a distinctive texture and taste that will have you licking the bowl clean.

    La Gourmet Desserts 乜都撈Pork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21Alco free 9fb1f2c65edc2c1eaf4e8b24402d108dd33cc2bc71f0fb0022a54c3c390a66c8


    La Gourmet Desserts' version of the durian dessert isn't all that fancy, but it still does pack enough of durian goodness. The Mango & Durian Loh is a prime example of both refreshing and sweet. Shaved iced, plenty of sago, cubes of mango and two scoops of durian plumps - a combination of the worthy. It has a good array of texture, as well as a balance of flavour which everybody would enjoy. Though those who hate durian would probably stay away from it.
