Check out this sign on the MRT on your next private tour in Singapore
Traveling in Southeast Asia you will definitely have come across a very distinctive smell and appearance of a thorny green fruit. We are talking about Durian! This fruit has a rather curious appearance, accompanied by a very strong smell. You might have seen one on your Singapore city tour, you might have wondered what this funny-looking and the smelling thing might be. A durian has very sharp thorns and grows on trees. A word of warning here: it can be fatal if a durian falls on your head! The distinct smell is a sign that the durian is ripe and ready to be eaten. This fruit comes in a large variety of shapes and size. If you are on walking tours of Singapore the most popular you will see is called "Mountain Cat King" - according to locals "the best grade there is".Singaporeans do not only eat the fruit plain as it is - no sir! There is a mild obsession across the country to find the best durian cake, durian puff, durian pastry and even durian ice cream!!! Chances are that you have seen one of these options on a food tour in Singapore! However, this deep-rooted love for durian smell can be very unpleasant especially in a country with a tropical climate like our little red dot! So, officials came up with a rule that everybody can enjoy and indulge their durian but please do not bring it on the bus or any other public transport, else you will get fined! This sign is on a public bus in Singapore. It was taken on a Singapore tour by Su Ling. When you take the bus on your Singapore tour from airport, count how many times you will see the "No durians" sign in public transports.The taste of a durian is always described as "stinks like hell, tastes like heaven". The consistency is more like a custard with a smooth texture. Next time when you on a Singapore street food tour, ask your private guide in Singapore to find you the best place to try durian!
