durian
Durian, often referred to as the “king of fruits,” is a tropical fruit renowned for its distinctive odor and creamy texture. In the Philippines, the area most associated with durian is Davao.
Davao, often called the “Durian City,” is the heart of durian production in the country, contributing significantly to the Philippines’ reputation as a major exporter of this unique fruit. Despite its polarizing scent, which some compare to rotten food, those who enjoy durian appreciate its sweet, custard-like flesh.
