Warm cheese mellows durian, even the double dose offered by the "super" pie shown here. (Joe DiStefano has made a similar observation regarding durian pizza). On a recent food crawl with a dozen friends — none who loves the pungent "king of fruits" as I do, but all of them game to try something new — this ready-sliced pie disappeared as quickly as any other dish.
