I have had durian a few times, and been somewhat bemused by the taste/aroma combo. But I have an absolute obsession with all things pandan, so I will certainly venture to Il Dolce Freddo to try this combination. Thanks for the tip! invinciblemelb – that sounds like a challenge!

Much better variety than having to resort Maccas or KFC yea?<br/><br/>I have few more examples like:<br/>Il Dolce Freddo gelato @ Lygon St.<br/>I brought my Sydney friends there to try their Durian and Pandan gelati!<br/>They were simply speechless at their first bite! They can't quite believe that such a magnificent durian-based delicacy could have been produced in unlikeliest city of them all, Melbourne!!<br/>Mind you, it is churned by ITALIAN NOT anyone of Asian descent! How much more proud can we be ?<br/>Pinnacle of east-meet-west, end of story!<br/>Now mel, I hope you can give that flavor a try. I assure you that you will be hard pressed to get anything of that quality in just about any Asian countries. Lol and mind you that eggplant dish only sets you back 7-8$!

I absolutely love their hotpot with minced pork, eggplant and dried fish - wow, it rocks! And you can't go passed their stirfried greens and garlic. Mmm.<br/><br/>We are so lucky in this town to have such great restaurants. Our Sydney brethren sure do miss out :-) Thanks for the tips invinciblemelb – I haven’t tried either of those ones yet :-) .

Imagine that a city like Sydney with tonnes of Chinese population but can not even produce this delicacy!<br/><br/>NB: their Chicken curry is to die for! It is not ala Japanese or Indian. I can't quite say which style but it is awesomely good nevertheless! You must also try their BBQ Pork bun!

Uh huh - Nam Looong was introduced to me by EG, and it has now become a firm cheap eats favourite in my repertoire. I am yet to have their congee though - so I must do so soon.<br /><br />Also of note are their MARVELLOUS steamed custard buns. They are coconutty in a most divine and satisfying way. Mmmm...
