Where in San Lorenzo: Durian

Know where to find this thorny fruit?

To go along with of a lion known by many as the "King of the jungle," durian fruit is widely known and referred to as the "King of fruits" throughout Southeast Asia.

With its thorn-covered husk, soft texture and distinct smell, its taste isn't easy to stomach by some. Chef Andrew Zimmern from the Travel Channel's show "Bizarre Foods" has often referred to it tasting like "completely rotten, mushy onions."

Somewhere in San Lorenzo, you can actually purchase these fruits. Do you know where?
