And seriously, in what way is a Durian associated with an angmoh?


We were at a famous durian stall along Balestier road just opposite my house!

We ordered one bitter-sweet durian for try-out.

You know when we chinese refer to a particular food which we don't like to eat, sometimes we would say "我不会吃" (I don't know how to eat). But you know that isn't the literal meaning. It's just 'don't like to eat'. But for David, it is literally - "I don't know how to eat"!

He couldn't decide where to place his fingers at.

Do I use my fingers? He asked. Yes, we answered. Then, he had his first physical touch at the durian flesh, he exclaimed, "ohh, it's soft!". Then he couldn't decide how to hold it! But we have HW here to teach him!






He said it was difficult to describe that kinda feeling. It wasn't detestable, it wasn't fantastic. I guess it is afterall not a caucasian thing. LOL!
