Carmina is traveling to the United States to spend time with her family. My dad planned a family gathering for Mother's Day at their favorite Pinoy restaurant . Since reservations aren’t possible, we arrived an hour early to ensure we could get a table for twelve before everyone else showed up. As my dad approached Isla Grand , the branch we visited in Pleasant Hills, California , the host at the door said they could prepare a table for twelve at five o'clock. Later, the server called my dad's name and guided us to our table. The place was bustling with people enjoying meals and celebrating Mother's Day. On our first visit to Isla Grand, I was captivated by the décor, noticing many native items that gave the place a fancy yet authentic Filipino feel. They usually have a live band, but unfortunately, there was no entertainment the night we went. My family had spoken highly of Isla Grand and encouraged us to try the Filipino dishes we’ve been missing from back home. Lech...
Carmina had entered the home she is living at the first thing she can smell was aroma that can fill up the rooms downstairs.
Durian has a strong smell that comes from the fruit. It is like a perfume people wear when they spray too much on themselves.
Rodelo had sliced the fresh durian wearing plastic gloves and having a Tupperware ready to place the fruits with the seeds.
After slicing the fresh durian aroma is no longer there it only happens when it hasn't been sliced up something I had notice.
For the first time Carmina was able to try and see how the durian taste like it has a milky texture with not much fruit to get the seed can be eaten only by cooking it.
We had received twenty pieces of durian fruit with seeds in one piece.
Yes, you can eat the seeds of the durian not advised to eat it raw needs to be cooked.
Tip:
I heard drinking soda with fresh durian is really good something my family does.
NOTE:
Carmina is not selling or advertising for Fresh Durian from Antipolo, Philippines just something we have growing in the farm for personal consumption.
