𝑻𝒉𝒆𝑭𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒏𝑷𝒐𝒆𝒕 on Instagram: "Don’t let memories trick you into reopening closed doors. Memory is selective, it shows you what it wants you to see and hides what it doesn’t. You’ll remember how they made you laugh but forget how they made you cry, you’ll remember the connection but forget the chaos. And suddenly you’re standing at that door again, wondering if you made a mistake. But you didn’t, you closed it because you had to, because staying would’ve cost you more than leaving did

Six years ago, we closed our doors because of COVID. From then on, we sold online, packed boxes, sent deliveries , but we never really saw who our customers were. For the first time in six years, I stood in front of a room of people who chose to be there not just to eat durian but to give me a chance It was also my first workshop ever. Thank you to everyone who came, listened, shared, and trusted us. Seeing your faces reminded me why Royal Durian exists in the first place. Grateful. Truly.
