In an attempt to elevate our durian eating experience, the brand has joined hands with Slake Restaurant to introduce a new rendezvous spot—-Mao King Tavern—-a durian bar that promises to take your tastebud for an unconventional spin.

Located at Swan Lake Avenue in Siglap, Mao King Tavern is a concept born from adversity to provide a local watering hole imbued with all things durian, ranging from bites to tipples. Busk in the spacious interior that is modelled with rustic wooden furniture as you savour all the premium fresh durians Durian Edition has to offer.

Apart from the likes of Black Gold (S$28/kg) and Musang King (S$25/kg), Mao King Tavern also offers a host of unique creations such as their famed Charcoal Grilled Durians (S$15.80), Musang King Burnt Cheesecake (S$12.80) and the Premium Mochiko (S$14.80 for three pieces).

What’s a bar without the booze? Wash down your plate of Har Cheong Kaarage (S$11.80) or Chye Poh Fries (S$9.80) with Mao King Tavern’s exclusive Musang King Ale (S$14.90/ bottle, S$80 for six bottles), a durian infused craft beer that is prepared by fermenting the flesh of real Musang King to fully absorb the essence of the durian over time.

Crafted by The 1925 Brewing Co. (1925), the Musang King Ale is housed in a dark coloured bottle to protect the liquid gold from any flavour irregularities caused by sunlight, enabling consumers to enjoy delightfully fruity booze with an unmistakable durian aroma.

North Korea's suicide soldiers pose new challenge for Ukraine in war with Russia
After a battle in Russia's snowy western region of Kursk this week, Ukrainian special forces scoured the bodies of more than a dozen slain North Korean enemy soldiers. But it is among mounting evidence from the battlefield, intelligence reports and testimonies of defectors that some North Korean soldiers are resorting to extreme measures as they support Russia's three-year war with Ukraine. "Self-detonation and suicides: that's the reality about North Korea," said Kim, a 32-year-old former North Korean soldier who defected to the South in 2022, requesting he only be identified by his surname due to fears of reprisals against his family left in the North.

Trump's Greenland bid stirs debate in China about what to do with Taiwan
For years, the U.S. government has urged China to show "restraint" in pushing its claim on Taiwan and to drop military threats to bring the democratically governed island under its control. Now - some Chinese commentators say - the power of that long-held U.S. message has been undermined by the threats by U.S. President-elect Donald Trump to take control of Greenland and the Panama Canal, by force if necessary. Trump takes office on Jan. 20.
