Prickly Softee

Concoction: A cup of McDonald's sundae without topping, expensive (apparently of grade D17 or something to that extent) tub of fresh durian from Malaysia
Where: A pavilion at West Coast Park
When: After work on a Monday night
Reviewer's frame of mind : Chummy

The Taste Test
For an idea that was spawned from the odd juxtaposition of childhood memories, unbearable ennui and bon vivant palate (not necessarily in that order), the end product came together very well, much to the surprise and delight of this reviewer's associates (sounds more impressive than merely saying colleagues eh? And in order to visualise the look on their faces, please refer to how the gourmands react on Japan Hour). After spending a considerable time walking from McDonald's to the pavilion and scraping off the durian flesh with a plastic spoon, the vanilla ice cream has melted suitably for the generous amount of durian shreds to blend in effortlessly (To visualise the how it tasted like, please refer to the fireworks in Ratatouille). Best served with self-depreciating humour. Update: Pictures in Max's blog
