Say hello to durian. Either you’ve lowered your eyebrow or started licking your lips. If you fall into the second category, this post is tailor-made to tempt your taste buds.

Boasting with a distinctive aroma and smooth texture, from ice cream to bite-sized snacks, pancakes to gelatos, oh boy, durian have taken centre stage. Some spots below are widely known, some are new kids on the block and some just requires you clicking online, but they all share one thing in common – leaving an unforgettable imprint for durian lovers.

Kek Seng Coffee Shop
The outlook of this coffee shop may seem an unlikely place to find a dessert but it’s been making waves both online and offline for decades especially for their homemade durian ice cream. The real deal here is opting for a hearty bowl of durian ice kacang. Once the colourful bed of icy concoction is formed with assorted syrups and scoops of corn and red beans, two scoops of durian ice cream are crowned on top. As the creamy lava cascades all over the bowl, it’s indeed photo-worthy and nothing short of delicious.
