Your girls is so brave especially your little princess, calm & relax at the glass floor... First time, i heard someone says Durian taste peanutty, there is many variation of Durian in Malaysia, each variations has it own unique taste & Durian is a fruit of ASEAN, not just Malaysia.... 😊
@@TheHutchinsons You should, with 'Cempedak" fruit too while you in Asean countries.. Durian & Cempedak fruit can easily be found in Asean... Cempedak(in Malay, also 'Cempedak') same genus with Breadfruit(in Malay, 'Sukun') & Jackfruit(in Malay, 'Nangka')... Cempedak more sweeter than jackfruit & the flesh texture nearly similar to Durian, a bit sticky... 😊
You should have try the 101 grade after you CHILLED it in the fridge for a few hours! It will taste like a sweet,rich & thick iced cream! Grade 101 is strongly recommended because this grade is 100% sweet! While other grade of durian may have some bittersweet or bitterness taste which might not be so appealing to many first timers. Remember, chilled durian will taste way way better to most first timers!
Not all Malaysians like durians. Even within households, there will be those who love it and those who hate it. It's a very personal thing. Even if you like it, there will be preferences to the different types of durian
Very true. In my household, I am the durian queen.I can devour half a fruit in one go. If I don't restrain myself, i can even finish a whole fruit. My daughter will eat one or two seeds at most. My husband and son will not touch it. My son can't even stand its smell.
So wonderful to see you guys having a blast in Penang. For a more natural environment & indegineous ethnic experience you have to visit Sabah or Sarawak with fantastic landscape, rainforests, wildlife and the warm & friendly natives.
Hi Bro, I want to teach you how to get rid of durian smell in your hands, or in your cars or in your fridge. To get rid of durian smell in your hands, simply take a part of the durian shell , add some drinking water onto the area where the durian pulps are holed. After removing the durian pulps to eat, simply pour some drinking water and rub on the smooth area where the pulps are and then drink the water. You will be surprised the smell of durian in your hands and your mouth will disappear. As for the durian smell in your car or fridge, (if happens you put durians in these places ) ,to remove the smell, simply leave a few "PANDAN LEAVES" which has a very fragrant smell, and this helps to kill the durian smell in your car or fridge.
Hmmm.. I ❤ Durian... 👍🏻😅 Hope you & your family enjoyed your stay at beautiful historic Penang.. can't wait for more of your exploration videos of Malaysia.. also hoping that you'll be spending the full 90 days here, there's definitely a lot more to discover 😊
Your daughters are very brave and adventurous. They failed the durian test though. Not very easy to love this fruit at first bite. Tasted durian when I was a kid and never liked it, to this day. I am a senior citizen now. I have 4 durian trees in my land in Gopeng which was purchased in 1978. Never tried eating the fruits either.
Durian… It’s a fruit whereby different ppl have different description about its taste, smell and texture, and at the end of the day, you either love it or hate it. And after some time, you may change your mind to love it or hate it after trying more. That’s the experience of durian. There are many variety of durians, many from East Coast Peninsula Malaysia. Popular ones are Durian Kanpung, Durian XO, Durian D24, Durian Gua Musang. Btw, that’s the sequence to taste the durian variety, and depending on the durian stalls, they may recommend what other varieties to try. Have a durian feast!! It’s gonna be a food experience!!
You need to visit the Kek Lok Si temple(one of the largest and most beautiful temple in Malaysia) and the snake temple located in the vicinity. Its not to be missed if you're in Penang. 😊
Types of durians in Malaysia that are popular. 1. Musang king 2. Tekka 3. XO 4. D24 5. 101 6. Red Prawn 7. BLACK THORN 8. Kampung durian (village durian) 9. Borneo jungle durian (red)
Nice I ❤ durian ice cream, durian cakes crepe`, n everything kingy it is made into! I applaud u as one of the very few Caucasian families tat tried our special thorny fruits, havin tasted the "creme` de la- creme`; daringly😮... & ❤ it!😊 More Cheers!
You guys must go & visit Kampung Agong in Penang..experience the malay kampung vibe near the paddy field there...I'm sure you guys will love it...but kampung agong is located in the mainland, not in the island of penang.
The only problems foreigners have with durian is the mushy texture and the stinky smell. Once you have overcome it, it can get addictive. So durian is not meant for everyone. Just like blue cheese is an acquired taste. Well at least you can tell people that you have tried durian once in your lifetime.
Finally, you guys tried it. It's better for kids to try it during their young age. When they grew up later in life, they will understand why Malaysian durians are the best when compared to its neighboring durians. Durians Do Not complement well with a glass brandy. You can spray some mouth spray after eating durians.
Your vlog is awesome 😊 you'll are durian lover😋waw your daughter is so brave can see at glass floor at Komtar😅 have a nice weekend 🌱🌱let's review more vlog ☆☆
What to do next? My suggestion: Take a bus from Penang to East Coast, Kota Bharu, Kuala Terengganu, and Kuantan. You will be in for a big surprise about foods, culture, people, and the environment. From there travel to Cameron Highland, Genting Highland, and Kuala Lumpur.
Glad you enjoyed the durian. It is an acquired taste to be fair. Some absolutely love it yet some can't even stand the smell let alone eat. Anyways pretty sad that you guys will be leaving Penang soon. Have a good time till then. Do keep the vlogs coming! Enjoyed every one! Keep it up! Cheers!
You're the first I've seen comparing it to blue cheese, which I've been telling my foreign friends when they were trying durian for the first time too! I myself don't eat durian, not because of the taste or smell, but I can't cope with the heat my body gets after eating it. Hope your family have a wonderful time here in Malaysia! 🥰
Firstly, welcome to Malaysia! Hope you enjoyed the stay here. Secondly, there's actually a method to eating durian. To start off, we would eat the sweet variants like Red Prawn first and save the bitter ones Musang King or Black Thorn last. Coz if you eat the Musang King or Black Thorn first, every durian you eat after that would be either tasteless or not as sweet.
that durian that you ate i can say is tastiest durian in malaysia,if you try regular durian it will be different. for me D24 and sultan durian are tasty.
Strongly advise first timer try the sweet fridge cold Durian. It taste way better than the room temperature durian, it taste like a very sweet and rich flavoured iced cream. Please also try to eat grade 101 as this grade basically is 100% sweet, where some more expensive Mustang King or black thorn may have some bitterness in it!
We have a traditional trick to rid of the durian smell... at least most of it... That is to fill the durian shell with water and wash your hands with it. Fill and wash a couple of times. Then using bottled water fill the shell and rinse the mouth.
When my foreign Western friends ask me to describe durians, I give them two extremes on flavour explanation because you either like or hate it. There's no one in-between. So for those who like it, I tell them it is like you're tasting sweet custard with rum and vanilla that's heavily scented with brown sugar. For my friends who dislike it, I tell them to imagine --- a night when you're smashed with lots of cheap whisky and beer, then at the end of the night, you feel like your stomach is turning; whatever that comes out from your stomach, that's the taste but sweeter.
Durians - an acquired taste - blue cheese custard .🤦♂️ Mangosteen & Cemoedak & Jackfruit would be more scrumptious for the kids ✅ For restaurants us locals would frequent fresh seafood 🦞 and culinary Masterchef level cooking on the island - I recommend “Penang Hai Boey Seafood” In Teluk Kumbar Bayan Lepas - fresh oysters 🦪 is a must try if available ✅👍 You missed the Butterfly farm near the cafe you stopped over. A good family stopover. If time permits - there is so much more Penang has offer - as you’ve still only scratched the surface. Must try “Ah Leng Char Kuey Teow” Jalan Dato Keramat; Go for the “Special” but be prepared to wait 30 mins to 1 hour for your plate of next level dish unlike anything on the island ✅👍😋 Take care & God Bless 🙏
You know wht.. people always discribe th fruit test shit.. but the diffrnt in this vd is .. in this vd the fruit is fresh.. once durian flesh get out or touched by the air around its longer it gets the test will change and i admit it gone smell bad stinky more.. but you try it once it got open its test sweet and a little bit bitter to it..
I dunno I mean in recent months i have been watching variosu vids on UA-cam on people trying exotic fruits (and YT shorts btw too) Durian included. Yeah and yes I have heard it to some smells and taste great and to others it smells awful and taste like hot garbage or **** (yeah some out there have mixed opinions on it) I will say though even if it smelled like **** to me if I had the chance id try it at least once.
Durian…. there are few different varieties which taste differently…. The most popular one is “Musang King” & D24… if you like Durian… should try different types of variety… smell like hell… taste like haven…😂
Hi, sorry for the late comment. Durian actually an acquired taste. If you notice, the pungent will slowly go once you take a few bites. After that only it will reveals its true taste. Its called King of Fruits for a reason.
good you tried durian - next time, u need to eat the flesh right off the seed - not pinch it off. or u should try a better quality durian, your experience would be better - just ask the seller if u prefer bitter, sweet, creamy, alcoholic etc. enjoy ur last experiences in penang. and hope u do come to kl
Durian is the best the tastiest fruit ever
I am worried that foreigners are learning to enjoy durian. Grow more to fight inflation please!
Wonderful video. Thank u. Glad to see that u like durian.
British people eating durians??? That will be interesting. The only British tourist enjoying it was vlogger Ellis WR recently. Salute to your family.
Sick.

Penang welcome you guys! Penang have so much more to offer and hope you guys enjoy the Durian. ❤❤❤
We didn't quite have the same experience when we tried it recently! But you either love it or hate it! I think we agree with the girls 😂
😂 it’s definitely an acquired taste!

Agree.
its an acquired taste ..Malaysian indians love it due to exposure since small whereas indians from India don't favour it at all..

Borneo is potentially on our list!!
You probably ate the best durians in South east asia. Durian comes from the word duri meaning thorns.
You're the first I've seen comparing it to blue cheese, which I've been telling my foreign friends when they were trying durian for the first time too!
I myself don't eat durian, not because of the taste or smell, but I can't cope with the heat my body gets after eating it.
Hope your family have a wonderful time here in Malaysia! 🥰
Yes it really reminded me of blue cheese 🧀 😂
So glad that you two can handle Durian.once you can swallowed it, there still lots of durian variants to taste.

Be passion and you will enjoying more. Welcome to Malaysia
Can eat fresh durian with sticky rice and fresh coconut milk, very delicious
Firstly, welcome to Malaysia! Hope you enjoyed the stay here.
Secondly, there's actually a method to eating durian. To start off, we would eat the sweet variants like Red Prawn first and save the bitter ones Musang King or Black Thorn last. Coz if you eat the Musang King or Black Thorn first, every durian you eat after that would be either tasteless or not as sweet.
Come on guys, just don’t look down at the floor😂 Girls have no fear😊 Look forward to the next video…..

I love Dooriang. Taste and smell both great to me. But some people can’t even stay near it. Either you love or hate it. Fun video!!!

Amazing that you like the durians with only one try. Most foreigners took a few times to get used to its unique taste. Congratulations 👏🏼🎉
Come to langkawi kedah❤
Hope you're enjoying your stay in Malaysia. How to get rid of the durian smell, gargle with salt water
My 3 yo daughter love durian...
Welcome to Malaysia
The purpose of any glass-walk is to jump up and down on it to test its structural integrity, doing it together with group of tourist is extra fun.
Walk the Habitat at Penang Hill. Durian...is either hate or love thingy. It is limited in supply which is why it is not for everyone.
OMG im so excited for yr next location 😂
In the 1980s, komtar was the tallest in malaysia (probably) south east asia.
It was awesome to stand on the top!
@@TheHutchinsons I hv fear of heights. Not for me.
pls try nasi kandar.Popular dish in Penang.Also dont forget to visit mosque in Putrajaya.
I'm from myanmar love you guys 🙂🤘
That blue cheese is so addictive.❤❤❤
🧀 🧀
If it doesn't goes well, try more best yellow creamy sweet ones. Every durian taste different, have many species.
Durians - an acquired taste - blue cheese custard .🤦♂️ Mangosteen & Cemoedak & Jackfruit would be more scrumptious for the kids ✅

the moment you lick your fingers after the first taste, we know you're hooked
I would describe durian as taste pairing between blue cheese and pear
Take the whole piece and eat it!
Hi, sorry for the late comment. Durian actually an acquired taste. If you notice, the pungent will slowly go once you take a few bites.
After that only it will reveals its true taste. Its called King of Fruits for a reason.
good you tried durian - next time, u need to eat the flesh right off the seed - not pinch it off. or u should try a better quality durian, your experience would be better - just ask the seller if u prefer bitter, sweet, creamy, alcoholic etc. enjoy ur last experiences in penang. and hope u do come to kl
Thanks for the tips! Yes we are heading to KL soon!!
Durian. Either you love it OR you hate it. NO IN - BETWEEN.
