#malaysiatrip This is the one and only best season for Durian!! Usually starting from mid of June onwards till almost end of Q3. You can see durian is everywhere now 😍 We came to this durian branch in Petaling Jaya - Durianman, you can literally see a long queue for durian buffet. Of course for those we want to order ala-carte do not need to queue up. They also offer ice cream, frozen durian and even durian coffee, all sorts of products related to durian! Psst! Their musang king is priced RM68/kg, considered quite a good price now 😉

📍 PT1967, Jalan SS 2/61, SS 2, 47300 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia Since ss2 night market doesn't have a specific address, if you search for SS2 Durian house stall above, you can go to the night market entrance☺️ Starting with durian, a fruit that you can't miss in Southeast Asia, Taiwanese pizza, Chinese skewers, rice cakes, Malay carrot cakes, fish cakes, etc., there were a lot of foods, and then there were medical supplies and miscellaneous goods, so it's great to look around and walk around! It's a place where there are more local young people than tourists, so if you want a night market without solicitation, it's a great place! There's a food court inside where you can order from the restaurants you want, so if you're a little hesitant about going on the street, you can buy food inside and try it! Check the days of the week when ss2 market is open and visit~! #Overseas travel #Hot place #Night market #Innae pick #Kuala Lumpur #Southeast Asia travel #Southeast night market

✨ From bug battles to nasi lemak bliss, KL didn’t disappoint (well… mostly). ⸻ 📍 Itinerary Overview Day 1: • Check-in at NaiBnB @ Agile Bukit Bintang • Explore TRX Exchange & Bukit Bintang • Petronas Twin Towers for sunset • Jalan Alor night market food feast Day 2: • Batu Caves • Central Market & Pasar Seni • Merdeka Square • Back for one last chaotic lift ride at the apartment ⸻ 🚩 Sightseeing Route (A.K.A. “Lost but Having Fun”) We started from Bukit Bintang and followed this somewhat planned route: Agile Bukit Bintang → TRX → KLCC → Jalan Alor (night market) → Batu Caves → Pasar Seni → Merdeka Square → Agile again, with sore feet and full bellies. ⸻ 🏖️ Must-Visit Attractions 💥 Petronas Twin Towers – Iconic, shiny, tourist-packed, and totally Instagram-worthy. 🕉️ Batu Caves – Climbed 272 rainbow steps and made eye contact with a monkey who stole someone’s kuih. #NationalGeographicMoments 🛍️ Central Market – Great for souvenirs and batik, also where I almost bought a singing frog keychain. 🌆 TRX Exchange Park – New, modern, and very “TikTok aesthetic” if that’s your thing. ⸻ 🚇 Transportation Mostly used Grab (cheap and fast), with a sprinkle of MRT/LRT adventures. Tried walking, instantly regretted it after 15 minutes. KL’s weather = sauna with clouds. ⸻ 📷 Photo Spots 📸 Petronas Towers at sunset (best lighting = 6:45PM) 📸 Batu Caves stairs – but beware of monkeys photobombing 📸 TRX Exchange rooftop – super modern and sleek 📸 Random mural at Pasar Seni that made me look cooler than I actually am ⸻ 🍜 Local Cuisine Let’s just say… our stomachs were full, our wallets were not. 🥢 Jalan Alor – Had the juiciest grilled chicken wings, stingray, and probably 3 different types of satay. 🥥 Tried coconut shake – 10/10 would sell my soul for it again. 🍜 Breakfast: Nasi lemak with sambal that sent me into a mini existential crisis (spicy but worth it). ⸻ 🏠 Accommodation – NaiBnB @ Agile Bukit Bintang The place looked decent online… until we walked in and got welcomed by a swarm of tiny flying freeloaders. I swear we killed at least 30 flies over 2 days — it felt like an episode of National Geographic meets “Fear Factor.” The lift was a whole mystery game on its own. At one point, I think I went to the gym by accident trying to get to the pool. And don’t forget — you gotta take out your own trash at check-out. Peak Airbnb energy. ⸻ 💡Tips 🔹 Bring bug spray. Like, really. 🔹 Book Grab for longer trips — fast, cheap, and you avoid the sweaty regret. 🔹 Don’t overbook Premier Access passes at Disneyland (learned from our last trip 😉). 🔹 Keep small change for street snacks! 🔹 Batu Caves = monkeys. Hold onto your food and phone unless you want to become monkey-famous. ⸻ #summer_destinastion #TravelFailMoments #KLStoryTime #couplestrip #travel #familytravel #ChaoticTravelEnergy #localfood #summervacation #NotSoPerfectTrip #staycation #must-do_kl #kuala_lumpur #klfoodie #MonkeysAndMemories #WhenInKL

#summervacay #榴哥SS2 #SS2Durian #DurianSeason #MalaysiaFoodTrip #PenangEats #MusangKingHeaven #DurianLovers #TropicalFruits #KLFoodie #FoodieAdventure If you’re a durian fan, then 榴哥SS2 is a must-visit spot! I dropped by during the evening and the moment I stepped in, the strong durian aroma hit me—in the best way possible. The place is clean, open-air, and filled with tables of people excitedly digging into piles of fresh durian. I got to try Musang King, and wow—it was incredibly creamy, sweet, with that perfect bitter finish. The staff were super friendly and even offered small samples before I made my pick. What impressed me most was how fresh everything was. The durians were opened right in front of you, and if they weren’t up to standard, they’d replace them without hesitation. Whether you come alone or with friends, it’s a great place to sit down, enjoy durian under the open sky, and bond over Malaysia’s king of fruits. 榴哥SS2 is more than just a durian stall—it’s an experience that brings locals and tourists together for one thing: seriously good durian. Travel Tips & How to Get There: • Best time to visit: • Evening, when it’s cooler and the crowd starts rolling in. • How to get there: • Located in the SS2 area of Petaling Jaya. • Easily accessible via Grab or LRT to Taman Bahagia station, then a short drive or walk. • Tips: • Ask for recommendations based on what’s fresh that day. • Bring wet tissues and water—you’ll need them! • If you’re new to durian, start with XO or D24 before jumping into Musang King.

Brother Durian, also known as 榴哥, is one of the more well-established names in SS2’s famous durian strip—and for good reason. With its bright signage, clean seating area, and organized display of fruits, the place gives off a sense of professionalism and trust that’s sometimes hard to find in roadside durian stalls. We visited during peak durian season, and the selection was impressive—from Musang King (Mao Shan Wang) to XO, Black Thorn, and even D101. Prices were clearly listed, and the staff were helpful in recommending the right durian based on our preferences—whether we wanted something bitter, creamy, or sweet. We went for the Musang King, and the fruit was spot-on: • Texture: Thick, creamy, and smooth • Taste: Balanced between sweet and bitter, rich but not overwhelming • Seeds: Mostly small with plenty of flesh The best part? No gimmicks, no fuss, just honest service. The seller cracked open the fruit in front of us, ensured the quality met expectations, and even offered to swap if it didn’t meet the mark. The seating area was clean, shaded, and comfortable, and drinks were available for purchase to wash down the richness of the durian. ⸻ Final Verdict Brother Durian (榴哥) offers a reliable, no-nonsense durian experience in SS2 with quality fruits, honest pricing, and friendly service. Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned durian fan, this spot delivers. #summervacay #malaysia #malaysiatrip #kualalumpur #kualalumpurtrip #BrotherDurian #榴哥SS2 #MusangKing #DurianSeason #SS2DurianTrail #KingOfFruits #DurianLovers #KLFoodie #PetalingJayaEats #DurianExperience #HonestDurianDealers #DurianMalaysia

On our hunt for the best durian in SS2, we decided to give Durian Hill a try—and we’re glad we did. It was a spontaneous decision after dinner, and while there weren’t many durians left, that only meant one thing: business must’ve been booming. We went with a Musang King (MSW) from Pahang, priced at RM58 per kg. Though not cheap, it was well worth the splurge for two people. The fruit was handpicked by the seller, and they chose well—creamy flesh, small seeds, and a rich, full-bodied flavor that hit the spot perfectly. The sellers were friendly, polite, and sincerely grateful, which added to the warmth of the experience. The environment was clean and well-kept, with proper seating and even a washroom available—a big plus when you’re enjoying durian in comfort. ⸻ Final Verdict Durian Hill SS2 offers premium durian in a clean, welcoming setting, paired with genuine service. If you’re craving a top-quality MSW experience, this spot delivers. #summervacay #DurianHillSS2 #MusangKingPahang #DurianLoversMalaysia #SS2DurianTrail #PremiumDurianExperience #KingOfFruits #CleanDurianSpot #KLFoodieFinds #DurianTasting #PetalingJayaEats #DurianSeason2025 #MalaysianFruits #malaysia #malaysiatrip #kualalumpur #kualalumpurtrip

SS2 in Petaling Jaya is well-known as a durian lover’s paradise, and DKing stands out as one of the more well-organized and inviting spots among the cluster of durian sellers in the area. The atmosphere is lively, with multiple durian stalls and photo-worthy setups that make for a fun and unique experience. If you’ve never taken a selfie with a mountain of thorny fruit, this is your chance! During our visit, we decided to go straight for the coveted Musang King—a must when you’re in Malaysia. The price was about SGD 20 per kilo, which isn’t dramatically cheaper than Singapore but still fair, considering the quality. The staff was helpful and honest, assisting us in selecting a good fruit based on our taste preferences. 🥭 The Durian: • Taste: Rich, but not overpowering. Not overly sweet, which we appreciated. • Texture: Slightly dry and creamy—exactly how I like it. • Seeds: Small, which meant more flesh. Always a win. We appreciated the clean and comfortable dining setup, with tables and chairs available for on-the-spot feasting. Drinks were sold separately, so it’s worth noting if you’re planning to wash it down with something cold. ⸻ Final Verdict DKing SS2 is a durian experience done right—clean, organized, and satisfying. While prices aren’t dirt-cheap, the quality and service make it worth it for any durian lover. #summervacay #DKingSS2 #MusangKing #DurianMalaysia #SS2DurianHunt #PetalingJayaEats #DurianExperience #KingOfFruits #MalaysiaFoodie #DurianSeason #CleanDurianSpot #DurianTastingKL #TropicalFruitLove #malaysia #malaysiatrip #kualalumpur #kualalumpurtrip

#celebrateit This place usually serves at least three coffee beans. one of them is their house blend, which is full-bodied and has a unique earthy flavor; and the other two are usually single origins, one being nutty/chocolaty like Tanzania/Guatemala, and the other usually more fruity like Ethiopia. I really love how they can keep such exciting options open all year long. On top of that, their scone with coffee butter is something I really don’t get elsewhere. The espresso infused butter (sprinkled with sea salt) is umami packed, a very good “jam” to go with scone. They seasonally serve tiramisu as well, which is carefully crafted with different layers of textures and flavors. It’s a personal hideaway for me. Give it a try sometimes! 📍Niju Coffee

#getgoing2025 Visiting Malaysia without trying durian fruit makes your travel incomplete. When I was in Kuala Lumpur for a short holiday last year, I took the opportunity to look for durian. My friends recommended that I visit the SS2 Petaling Jaya area, where durian stalls are plentiful. The place resembles a durian market, with many stalls offering various types of durian from different sources throughout Malaysia. You can either take away the durian or enjoy it on the spot. The durians I tasted were incredibly delicious, especially the Musang King and Black Thorn varieties. It was the best durian hunting experience I have had so far. This experience makes me eager to return soon. **Tips:** - Although it doesn't happen often, eat the durian on the spot to ensure you can get a replacement if part of the durian is rotten. - The best time to enjoy durian is in January or early February, as this is durian season in Malaysia.

Address: Jalan SS2/24, SS2, Petaling jaya, Selangor Atmosphere/Facilities: Heaven for durian lovers Recommended points: Overwhelming variety and quantity of durian Average price: Musang King is about 4000 yen per piece, XO and D24 are about 1500 yen Budget per person: Evaluation: There are several places to eat durian in Kuala Lumpur, such as Chow Kit Market, Durian BB in Bukit Bintang, and Alor Street, but SS2 is a must-see, and among them, Durian Man stands out for its location and store appearance. Take the LRT from KL Sentral for about 20 minutes, get off at the Taman Bahagia (Garden of Happiness) station, and walk north for about 20 minutes to reach durian heaven. #durian

💞Reasons to Recommend: Durian is my addicted fruit which I cannot buy fresh and so cheap in Australia… 📍Address: Any stall you can see on the road There are many types of durian. However, I recommend XO or D101 which affordable price to eat everyday when staying there 🤣 These types are cheaper than other, but still very nice taste. If you like to try nicer, or sweeter, can eat Musang King. The most expensive one I tried is Black Thorn. To me, its taste is not much different with Musang King, but much smaller… can try, but not recommended. 💰Average Price per Person: around 30rm/kg for XO (if buy from sidewalk stalls, not in big restaurants)

You can experience Malaysia in an area called SS2 in Petaling Jaya, a city next to Kuala Lumpur. First of all, when you think of Malaysia, there's durian ✨ I didn't like the strong smell so I never tried it, but a local friend told me about a durian shop called Durian Man in SS2. I asked the knowledgeable shop assistant to recommend a delicious one!! and he chose a recommended durian for me. It has a strange texture! It tasted like a slightly bitter custard cream, and I was able to eat it 👍 There is also a relatively large hawker center nearby, so you can order and eat what you like. They also sell alcohol, and a large bottle of beer is RM10, so it's very cheap compared to the city center ✨ SS2 was great #TravelingWithMe

#winhkflight This new-style durian stall offers a spacious seating area, beverage options, and a diverse selection of durian, each clearly priced. While slightly pricier, the quality and ambiance make it a top pick. Trietd several places for musangking. This is probably the best place to eat durian. They have various durians here, the employees are helpful. Highly recommended for a premium durian experience. I wish to go Hong Kong this year because I would like to try their dessert in Hong Kong.

I’m so glad I got to makan some good ole durian in KL this time around! there were a lot more species of durians than Singapore. what I appreciate most was the amount of sitting space here and they even sold Luo Han Guo drink in case you got too heaty for eating durians! I had a fresh coconut and it was seriously yummy and helpful in dispelling the heat after the durian party

A must to go whenever we go KL for vacation or transit. Alot of choices where you can choose after you survey the price at different stall. Having nice and creamy Musang King durian at there. There is alot of cafe and restaurants nearby . And not forget place to massage after a long day. Great place great location. Located at SS2 kuala lumpur. can easily find the location using waze or google location. #durianlover #ss2pj #massage #cafeandbar

Glasshause Durian I would recommend to try this place for Durian ! We picked the butter King 🤴 and Musang King at The Musang King was the best ! Rich , creamy and sweet bitter taste! No wonder this place is a hot spot ! I didn't like the butter King as I felt the taste was too raw. Gloves and tissue were provided. would definitely visit again. Rating for Musang King 4.3 out of 5

only can taste Musang King in Malaysia….
