WEEKEND FOOD CAPERS







A 20-kilo watermelon. White bittergourd. Water bamboo. Rosy red mango apples. Sweet, luscious Kyoho grapes with a tinge of wine. These are some of the bountiful harvest from Taiwan that you can find at Jaya Grocer and other major supermarkets in conjunction with the Taiwan Fair 2011.

Launched yesterday at Empire Shopping Gallery by the it marked reprsentatives from the Taiwan Trade Centre and District Farmers Association in Taiwan, this is the second time Taiwan's finest produce has been brought in for Malaysians to savour.

After the V! VIPs cer emoniously cut open two gigantic watermelons to mark the fair's opening, we managed to sample the honey-sweet and juicy slices. The fruit's texture was denser than our local ones with a refreshing crunch to it.

The Golden and Irwin mangoes were equally sweet. Other fruits we sampled include red plums, Kyoho grapes and snow pear but there were also guava and rock melon.
