Re: Durian Smoothie Trip Report
El D, if you like avocados I think you will enjoy durian, as long as you have an open mind. (I'm guessing you haven't from your 'interesting' comment)

Re: Durian Smoothie Trip Report
I had all kinds of tendon in the Pho. Love it. Like I said, everything but the tripe. I'm just not into it so much; I don't like menudo for the same reason.
I put sriracha, many jalapenos (spicy ones today), bean sprouts, lime (this is a nice changeup from the lemon), and cilantro. No hoison. You think I'm a pho rookie, bitch? Dooo maaah! |

Re: Durian Smoothie Trip Report
Avacados are nothing like a durian. I suggest you try the durian, though.
FWIW, this place had an avacado smoothie, too. I'm not kidding, nor do I think I will be trying it. This place is like smoothie survivor! Diablo, we need to get GoG out there. It'll be a little bit of heaven and a little bit of hell for him. |

Re: Durian Smoothie Trip Report
I would try fresh durian, though I'm not sure why at this point. It's an experience and it did have some positive notes sprinkled into the rank odor/taste. I also can say I've never had anything that's hit the parts of my palate that the durian did. It was strange as hell, and I don't know if I like it or not.

Sucker,
Mitchell's Ice Cream, the best ice cream in California, has an avocado ice cream that is supposed to be incredibly delcious. I haven't had that one yet, but everyone who tries it says it is great. |

Re: Durian Smoothie Trip Report
JA,
I am guessing the person who prepared the smoothie did not take the skin off of the fruit. edit: I am not sure if I have actually eaten a Durian or not. There are a bunch of these tropical fruits that taste similar and have similar textures, ie rambuttan, logon, logan, lychee, mangosten. I have never bought one of them whole, so If I ate it was after someone peeled it for me, but I have no recollection if it smelling bad. |
