Durian, is one of those things you either love or hate. It has an obnoxious smell and frightening appearance, weighs about 3 or 4 kilograms and is covered in large spikes. It is yellowish-green and has a hard shell. A creamy white pulp covers the seeds, which is what people eat.
Mangosteen, this is on the contrary a sweet, delicious fruit that everyone likes. Queen Victoria offered to knight the first person who could get it to England in an edible condition. Nobody succeeded. The shell is deep purple. It is a bit hard and has to be twisted or cut off to reveal four or five segments of brilliant white fruit.
Rambutan, this red, hairy fruit grows in bunches in tall trees. Its name means “hairy”, which describes it well. Take off the skin and eat the white, refreshing acid-sweet flesh that covers the single seed.
Salak, this fruit looks like a pear and has a reddish-brown, snake-like, scaly skin, which is easily peeled off to reveal crunchy, slightly astringent, white flesh. Mostly grow in east Bali
Sirzak (soursop), this large fruit is green on the outside, white on the inside, with an acidic-sweet taste. Its flavor has been described as a combination of strawberry and pineapple with sour citrus flavor notes contrasting with an underlying creamy flavor reminiscent of coconut or banana.
