#SHOWBIZ: TVB star Kelly Fu's durian feast in Malaysia: 12 pieces in one go
HONG KONG: Popular Hong Kong actress Kelly Fu and actor Owen Cheung, co-stars in TVB's crime drama D.I.D. 12, were recently in Malaysia for a promotional event. Sin Chew Daily reported that both actors indulged in local food, with Fu particularly enjoying durians – she apparently ate 12 pieces in one sitting. Cheung, however, wasn't a fan of the 'king of fruits' and felt rather uncomfortable after tasting just one piece. The 37-year-old TVB Best Actor shared his relief: "Fortunately, I got to have a delicious bowl of prawn noodles at a small shop." Fu also spoke about her culinary adventures, saying, "I tried ikan bakar with sambal sauce, as well as patin fish and sambal sauce. It's so fragrant, and it goes really well with rice." A fan of spicy food, Fu even bought jars of sambal as souvenirs. The 40-year-old actress described filming D.I.D. 12 as an unforgettable experience. She praised Cheung's support, especially during intense emotional scenes, and also appreciated him keeping the air conditioning on during hot days on set. In the series, Cheung plays a brilliant but volatile detective who struggles with Dissociative Identity Disorder, while Fu takes on the role of a criminal psychologist.

Since this is Fu's first visit to Malaysia, Cheung took it upon himself to play host when they were out indulging in local food. Unfortunately for Cheung – who is not a fan of durian – Fu wanted to sample Malaysia's king of fruits ... and she truly enjoyed it as she apparently consumed 12 pieces in one go. Ever the gentleman, Cheung shared that he was 'forced to taste a bite' too. Even though durian may not be on his list of indulgence while in Malaysia, Cheung admited he does eat a lot when he's here. As quoted by Sin Chew, the actor said that every time he visits Malaysia, "I always tell myself to not eat so much, but it is difficult to control. I have to eat supper after dinner!' The 37-year-old TVB Best Actor fondly recalled eating a delicious bowl of local prawn noodles at a small non-air-conditioned shop. He hoped to to revisit the same stall this time around. Besides durian, Fu also ate ikan bakar (grilled fish) with sambal and rice. 'I also tried patin fish and sambal sauce for the first time. It's so fragrant, even more fragrant than XO sauce and it goes really well with rice,' she said. Fu, who loves spicy food, said she bought sambal jars as souvenirs and joked that she "ate so much she grew a size". As for their project together, the 40-year-old said filming D.I.D 12 was unforgettable and appreciated Cheung's support, especially during intense emotional scenes. She also appreciated that Cheung kept the air-conditioning on during hot days. In the series, Cheung plays a brilliant but volatile detective struggling with Dissociative Identity Disorder, while Fu takes on the role of Dr Zoey Yeung, a criminal psychologist.
