I rank them a close second to durian.Fried chempedak has no peers in the taste department although you get a sore throat the next day without fail.We used to cook the seeds too, tastes good although you won't be very popular with all the flatulence it creates!! From Hamilton road to ayer itam, thats a long way to cycle.Have you ever taken the short cut by the cemetery and next to the river in batu lanchang and thru' the pig farms to thean teik estate? I used to do that in the evenings, it was spooky man!! <strong>Peter: I have never used the shortcut before but have hiked up the hillock opposite Georgetown Secondary School many times. My parents, in their morning walks, have walked all the way from Jalan Terengganu to Ayer Itam using the short cut and on Jalan Ayer Itam, not at night though. If the cempedak is properly deep fried, you can actually eat it after whacking the flesh without having to boil it first. You sure have a lot of stories to tell.

I don't particularly like goreng pisang, rather i prefer fried sweet potatos,fried yam, or yam with tee kueh.Fried chempedak is another great thing to have.Being the only son, my task in those days would be to cycle forth on my old trusty raleigh and buy goreng pisang for the family afternoon tea on weekends! <strong>Peter: At the mention of cempedak, I could literally smell it in my nostrils.
