Yah Kang (Centipede Durian)
2 q1 } T# N, `, ]7 g8 @9 ?tvb now,tvbnow,bttvbYah Kang is one of my favourite durians. Although its flesh is whitish, the taste is superb, milky, like very sweet, melting chocolate. The name 'yah kang' means centipede, and accounts for the number of centipedes found at the foot of the tree, hence giving it the rather unusual name.
