Penang restaurant makes Musang King durian burger, Malaysians freak out

Tis’ the season to be smelly, durian-lah lah lah lah lahhhh

Yes, friends. Durian season is upon us. The best time of the year, the most wonderful time of the year when your papa comes home a with sack of aromatic gifts. It’s basically Malaysian Christmas lah.

But for *some* reason, people just can’t leave our precious durian alone. First McDonald’s released a durian McFlurry. Then Ikea went a little nuts with durian frappes, durian tarts and a durian cendol cake.

Well, strap in durian fans because a Penang restaurant has decided to give us Malaysians something we never ever asked for…

Made with the king of the King of Fruits, Musang King, the burger
consists of a breaded Musang King & mozzarella cheese patty and topped with
a melty paste of durian and cheese.

The durian burger abomination went viral after a popular blog site, Penang Foodie shared the news.

Of course, whenever someone messes with Malaysian food, especially durian, it prickles a lot of people on the internet. And we mean A LOT.

Clearly, this is a thorny issue.

So, are you willing to try the burger or stick with the SS2 durian
stalls?
