Buying Fruits at Ramon Magsaysay Fruit Stand

In the previous posts, I talked about yummy treats made from durian fruits. If you are wondering where did I bought all of those treats then wonder no more because I will tell you where I got the yema tower, durian tart, durian candy and durian polvoron.

If you visited Davao City, then more often than not, you had visited the Ramon Magsaysay Fruit Stand that is located beside the Ramon Magsaysay Park.

Ramon Magsaysay Fruit Store

Davao City is famous for its fruits like durian, pomelo and lanzones. When we visited Davao three years ago, we are fortunate because we are just in time for the late fruit season. We ate tons of durian, pomelo and lanzones for just a low price. During the fruit season, Davao is flooded with fruits. My favorite is lanzones, which I never stopped gobbling.

Ramon Magsaysay Fruit Stand is the place to go to if you are looking for a place to buy fruits and yummy pasalubong in Davao. I suggest that you visit the Ramon Magsaysay Fruit Stand if you are about to leave Davao so that you will not be burdened with heavy loads of fruits while you are touring Davao.

Durian fruits and pomelo for sale.

It is quite convenient to buy durian fruit at Ramon Magsaysay Fruit Stand because they will give you the option to pack durian in a Styrofoam container or in plastic container. You need to pack fresh durian fruit because airport officials will not allow you to bring durian on the plane because of its smell. Fresh durian fruits should be packed and sealed. So, if you are at Ramon Magsaysay Fruit Stand buying durian fruits then you  can ask the fruit vendor to pack and seal it. There is an additional fee for the packing of durian fruit because you will pay for the container used.

.

Aside from fruits, you can also buy pasalubong items at Ramon Magsaysay Fruit Stand. You can buy sweets like the one had listed above. There are other things that I failed to mention but if you are looking for food pasalubongs then I believe that you will see them at Ramon Magsaysay Fruit Stand.

Yummy Treats from Durians – Part 2

Last time I talked about the yummy durian yema tower. As I had said, there are many treats made from durians and you will see lots of those treats if you visit Davao City. Here are the other yummy treats from durians:

.

The durian treats on the above photo are the popular durian candy, durian polvoron and durian tart. People visiting Davao City usually go to the stalls beside the Magsaysay Park just to buy these treats as their pasalubong when they go home.

The most popular of the treats made from durians is the durian candy. As the name suggest, this candy made of durian. The durian smell is not that strong in durian candy that is why people who can’t eat durian because of the smell choose to eat durian candy instead.

.

Another treat made from durians is the durian polvoron. For those who don’t know what polvoron or pulburon is, please visit my article about polvoron. Durian polvoron is the same as the regular polvoron but was made special because of the durian ingredient. Just like in durian candy, the smell is not that strong in durian polvoron.

.

My least favorite is treat made from durians is the durian tart. I don’t like it much because the breading of the tart is thick as compared to the durian placed in this durian treat. Because of this, I taste the breading more instead of the durian. Of all the pasalubong items, the tart is my least favorite. I have the same complaint with pili tart.

.

Only my father and I eat fresh durian fruit. My mother, my brothers and my sister are not fans of durians because they don’t like the smell. They prefer treats made from durians like the yema tower, durian candy, durian polvoron and the durian tart. When I brought those durian treats home, they gobbled them up in no time.

Yummy Treats from Durians - Part 1

One night, while I was browsing the photos inside my external hard drive, I happened to see this:

. 

Durians and Pomelo Fruits for sale.

The picture above is the photo taken the last time I visited Davao City. The fruits in the picture are pomelo and durians that were being sold on fruit stalls beside the Magsaysay Park in Davao City. Another photo that I saw is this:
.

Yummy! That's a durian that was being opened by the store owner to allow us to taste it before we decide if we will buy it or not. I know that some of you will recoil from tasting durian because of the smell. Well, at first I don't like eating durian because of the smell. But I learned to eat it and once you realize how delicious durians are then the smell will be pleasant to your nose.

Those who can't take the smell and taste of durians have the alternative and those are the yummy durian treats. The most popular of these durian treats is the durian candy. Other available treats made form durians are the durian tart and the durian polvoron. However, my favorite of all of the durian treats is the yema tower.
.

Yema Tower

Yema are custard candies that was brought by the Spaniards during their colonization of the Philipines.* It is a sweet that has milk as the main ingredient. The Yema Tower is like the normal yema but it was infused with the taste of durians. The result is a sweet and chewy treat that have the taste of durian. It became my favorite because of its durian taste and its sweetness.
.

However, those who don't like the smell of durian may also dislike the Yema Tower power the smell of durian is still there.

The smell of durian may be too much to bear but for those who don't want to taste the yema tower doesn’t know what they are missing. As for me, I will eat another yema tower if I got a chance.

Oops...the yema tower is almost gone
