Guest guest Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Hello, I'll be visiting from out of town in a few weeks. Where is the best place to buy durian? Thanks! Uma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 My favorite place is Lam's Seafood Market, 1221 S King St, Seattle, Washington - Phone: 206-720-0969 They usually have a good selection of durian and a good price. When whole durian is not available they usually have frozen 1 pound bags. As another option, just up the hill on 12th Ave S is Hau Hau Market (412 12th Ave S). Diagonally across the road from Hau Hau is another market (forgot the name) that usually has durian. It's at the corner of 12th Ave S and S Jackson Hope to meet you while you're here. Hopefully we'll have a potluck while you're in town. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 stuff the durian! its seattle not asia.. i was in taiwan last week and got some fresh stuff. am in seattle now and picking wild blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, apples, pears, nashi, plums, greens... packed with bonus b12 too! lol! if you want durian, its still good season in southern thailand. overwise if your really desperate for fumigated, dipped, boiled , irradiated durian, then your local asian shop will have em. > Hello, > > I'll be visiting from out of town in a few weeks.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Gee thanks for that great, uplifting post Harley. Some of us poor slubs still have to go to work and can't make it to Thailand any time in the near future. I'm still going to eat what is in the stores around here and in Vancouver.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 i reckon im the poorest slub in this group. i slept on a park bench in singapore to afford my first red prawn durian. i rode my bike 3500km around thailand and singapore, donating blood to local mosquito colonies to find the best durians. my taxable income this year was around 6000$ US. and i spent half of that to attend doug grahamas raw vegan sports camp. money is no longer a barrier for me. if i want something i find a way, and if i cant find a way, i make one. hey i used to eat boxes of that frozen stuff they call durian. but after eating ones that i heard fall to the ground in the orchard..... we are all worth noisemaker, tree ripened, morning gathered, tropical squirel selected, local , organic, hor lor durian.
