Durian Pancakes @ CAPRI Dessert, Sri Petaling
December 16, 2008 | 7,218 views
Colourful, vibrant, promising …. yet did it deliver?
Jackfruit and Sea Coconut with Ice (RM3.90)
Chives Crepe (RM3.90)
Custard Cheese Rolls (RM4.30)
Butter Milky Fish Fillet (RM6.90)
Durian Pancake (RM6.30)
Now this Durian pancake roll is DA BOMB! Mimicking the current trend of everything-durianized, and suspiciously a mirror image of the ones sold at The Garden’s Sumptuous Desserts stall in front of Rak Thai. Mimicry = best form of Flattery?
Creamy and fresh durian flesh and cream stuffed into the green-coloured pancake skin, rolled up and served chilled. Portion may be on the smaller end, as when cut into halves, each half can be walloped in one mouthful. But nothing satisfies a durian-lover more than a sweet, creamy dessert made from the king of fruits.
On the whole, I will not return for the food in the future, as Seri Petaling too far for me, and the food’s a disaster. Except, the Durian Pancake. Hmmm … I may just be crazy enough to return for them. Or anywhere else I can get my hands on them?
Location : CAPRI DESSERT @ 33, Jalan Radin Anum, Sri Petaling, 57000 Kuala Lumpur. Tel No : 603-9057 1268

too bad i tak makan durian, if not can check it out..hehe..oh, there’s that famous durian pancake at mid valley as well right? *holding my breath* hehehe…
[Reply]
from the pic, thats not chives – maybe baby leeks but definitely not chives. They look like very very small and thin spring onions.
[Reply]

[Reply]

i use to be hooked on durian. then one day, i had beer (actually 2 hours after the durian) and fell sick.

Only to go back for the durian crepe? Better get them at Gardens, it’s nearer to your KL office. Or durian pulut in Bangsar as mentioned by Precious Pea 🙂
[Reply]
The place looks nice…
Oh no…. the durian pancake looks exactly like in the Honey Dessert (franchise dessert shop from taiwan if I’m not mistaken). As a durian lover, I tried it and… oh my.. it’s so yucky 🙁 Yeah.. I posted in my blog.
[Reply]
oh, the custard thingy looks so artificial! phlegh! luckily for durian pancakes to save the day..
[Reply]
mayo? weird choice. and the rolls do look unappetising. am not the biggest durian fan either so I guess this place is a no go for me. 😛
[Reply]
Durian pancakes worth going back for? Hmm… must be real good for u to say that 😉
[Reply]
The jackfruit dessert fully covered by ice, must be very diluted lor?

Yucky as it’s nasty… it’s like pancake just full of whip cream and hardly to taste the durian…

The pancake looks so good with a thick slab of the knock-out durian flesh.
