Did you taste durian while you were there? I've had it once here, in a Cantonese restaurant in Milbrae. The mystery, popularity, and utter disdain of the fruit seems to be rooted in the way we all perceive its flavors in widely differing responses.
I tasted it once in a Cantonese restaurant in Milbrae in a yellow pudding form. It was a real shock to my palate...I perceived it as an egg custard with raw onions in it!
