Last 2 days ago,I was in Chinatown,NYC for food shopping.I bought a bunch of Malaysia goodies.When I'm shop in any Chinatown,I won't fail not to bring home any of my favourite goodies.I know few Asian grocery stores in the city speciality selling Malaysia ,Indonesia and Thailand products.I walk in one of the grocery store Kam Man on Canal St.On the entrance on the first shelf I saw some durian candy..Viola!!!..I quickly push Mishu's stroller and grabs all the packets candy and shove in to her basket under her seat..There are 3 different companies produce the candy.2 company made the candy from Thailand in which the paper wrapped is in clear and I can see the candy is so yellow like Durian.And the other one made from China is in bigger packet.So I guess bigger always doesn't taste better and it's from China.Anyway,I won't pass not to try it. So all together I bought 6 packets of Durian's candy.
After shop in Kam Man Food store I heading to Asian Food Market in Mulberry St.I love this store .You can find all their location in here explorechinatown .This store is in the process of closing ,but the lady boss let me in since she saw me running toward them.I found alots of Malaysia spiced products there.But since all of them waiting for me ,I better hurry up.We chat for a while,I request her to order in Prima's Product.I told her that I hear that this product is very good.She told me that she will do that since she have alots of American looking for new items too.Walking down the street toward Bayard St at the corner I saw a fruit vendor selling Durian.And this is Monthong Durian wiht blue ribbon.I keep looking for this brand ,I prefer this brand because it have the powerful flavor and taste.This is the same Monthong Durian brand in vacuum freezer packet. thaitastes
Mishu love the durian candy but she refused to eat Monthong durian this time.I open every each of the candy and I found out that the candy from Thailand taste like real durian.The price is reasonable and can consider good for candy.The fruit vendor owner ask me to buy 2 nos of his durian and will give me a better price.The told me"One pound for $1.40 but if you buy two I will give you $1.20 per pound.I said to him..'.'sorry...ah sok..no..I'm the only one who eat durian in my home,so one is enough for me''.Then he said Ok,I will charge you $1.30 per lbs.I gladly hand him my money.
So today I eat all my favourite food!!..Monthong Durian and Durian candy!!!.Feel better after this feast!!.Make my day!
