Try one, since you are here, just taste it haha~ The souffle at Shapowei, Q bomb soft and fluffy, the taste is like a cloud. Must go to eat! The Musang King durian on Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street is fragrant and soft. A friend tried durian for the first time and fell in love with it! She also sincerely sighed that the taste was not as "smelly" as she imagined, and it was surprisingly delicious~ The freshly peeled coconut egg, I have been thinking about it for a long time! I always feel that the white coconut meat outside will be delicious, but in fact, after eating two or three bites, I start to feel greasy, and I feel like chewing raw coconut oil haha. I don't know when I will go next time. Leave a thought first~
